[NETWORKING] Automatic Port Handling

from Demigod Forums

It has been mentioned several times that you can unblock/unlock port 'X' and port 'Y' to help facilitate Demigod play, by running a certain Impulse .exe. I am wondering if it would be possible to simply have Demigod itself run this program at start-up, unblock/unlock/enable these necessary ports, and then return them to their previous state (whatever that was) once Demigod is shut down.

That is kinda the point of the NAT punch through.  Unfortunately, it didn't work as well as they hoped and had serious server usage issues.  Thus why they are now suggesting port opening.

I`m thinking something more resident and launched from your system locally though, as opposed to having to be activated/bidden forth by a remote network (assuming I understand things properly).
