It is a bit sad to see such few servers (1 or 2 non-U.S. dedicated servers at any given time as of this writing). I've picked up the game again recently, but I'm not sure I have the correct ports set up in my router for hosting. I tried adding some that were for UT3, assuming they'd be the same for The Haunted. If that's not correct, let me know.

Also, a bit offtopic but, I just upgraded from 2.5 beta to 3.0 final and have noticed two bugs so far with 3.0. Specifically: a plain ground stomp will not stun monsters in your immediate vicinity even though they are very close, and the controls are not as responsive in some cases. Regarding the latter issue, it seems some controls are now blocked until animations are complete (or animations take longer), unlike 2.5. This is really evident especially when trying to jump again *right* as you land from another jump for example.

I noticed both of these bugs right away after the upgrade and was kind of disappointed since I was taking more damage because of them than I ordinarily would in a round. I tried doing a diff between all the files in the old and new config directories, but couldn't find any settings that were related to these problems, so it must be something that changed in the mod itself?

EDIT: Looks like I have the right ports setup. I'll be hosting a non-dedicated server at least once a day or so :-)
