public static function InitializeServer(connections: int, listenPort: int, useNat: bool): NetworkConnectionError;
public static NetworkConnectionError InitializeServer(int connections, int listenPort, bool useNat);
public static def InitializeServer(connections as int, listenPort as int, useNat as bool) as NetworkConnectionError

Description

Initialize the server.

/connections/ is the number of allowed incoming connections (note that this is generally not the same as the number of players). /listenPort/ is the port number we want to listen to. /useNat/ sets the NAT punchthrough functionality. If you want this server to be able to accept connections using NAT punchthrough, using the facilitator, set this to true.

		Network.incomingPassword = "HolyMoly";
