There was a really old thread for this, but it's locked and I didn't see any progress..

If you use this line in the command bar, you can make a local server:

settings().Diagnostics:LegacyScriptMode() ns = game:GetService("NetworkServer") ns:Start(PORT#, 0.1)

If you use this line, it /should/ let you join it:
settings().Diagnostics:LegacyScriptMode() ns = game:GetService("NetworkClient"):PlayerConnect(0, "IP#", PORT#)

But instead I get "- Local player already exists" if I try to do that in solo mode. I'll try edit mode, will update in a second..

Don't forget you can't just join "random" servers.
I thaught they had to be owned by ROBLOX or your local computer.
LAN? Hmmm not sure

I got it!
In edit mode, you can join the server with the second command I posted. I used a forwarded port to start the server. Now to test online play..

Nope, I don't know how it would be possible to start a server in online mode, but it would be pretty easy to use Hamachi, I think.
