Playing with Friends

LAN or Tunneling — play with anyone, anywhere.

Option 1: Local Network (LAN)

Same house, same Wi-Fi:

  1. Start your server from the dashboard.
  2. Find the "Local IP" in the header (e.g., 192.168.1.XX).
  3. Your friends enter that IP in Minecraft > Multiplayer > Direct Connect.

Option 2: Internet (Tunneling)

Built-in Pinggy tunneling, no port forwarding:

  1. Go to the Network or Public tab.
  2. Click "Start Tunnel".
  3. Wait for a public address (e.g., tcp.pinggy.io:12345).
  4. Share the address with your friends.

Note: Free tunnel addresses change on restart. Send the new address each time.
