Can I join a server hosted in the same PC?

    Can I join a server hosted in the same PC?

    I'm asking because I can't do it, so or I'm doing something wrong or it just can't be done. I can host a server properly but when I try to join it says "Please check the adress again and make sure the server is running". This happens even if I try to connect with my local IP.

    So, it's even possible? Thanks. :)

    Can other people join it ? If not, did you forward your ports on your router ?

    (also hosting a server on your own computer will not work very well as it will lag like hell if there's more than 5 players :/)
