I needed to do a project for my school and I thought of this. Now that I looked into it, its a lot easier than I thought it would be. Plus, the two games I had in mind have their own server manager in the game files and there you can make your own server using their resources. I am using a Hyper-V because I have one pc and I was planning on running it in the backround and maybe remoting into it. With that said, can I connect to my server from another network and would I do that through port forwarding?
