Project Zomboid is the ultimate in zombie survival. Alone or in MP: you loot, build, craft, fight, farm and fish in a struggle to survive. A hardcore RPG skillset, a vast map, a massively customisable sandbox and a cute tutorial raccoon await the unwary. So how will you die?
## Server Ports
Project Zomboid requires one port for Steam and an additional **one port per player**. Additional ports are allocated as they connect.
For example, when configured with a base allocation of 27016:
Zomboid Steam Server started, ports 27016 and 27016 must be open on the router
Connected new client kubi ID # 0 and assigned DL port 27017
Connected new client kubi2 ID # 1 and assigned DL port 27018
```
If you're experiencing issues with players connecting it's likely because you have not allocated enough ports. These ports **must be in order** following the Steam port.
