Start up a server first, then you can start the player. The option is right by the start player option.

Exactly.

The Start Player button in Studio starts a new instance that is searching for a server hosted locally on your computer. You need to start the server, THEN start the players.

As of yet, I am unsure as to whether or not you can start a server on one computer, and have other computers on your local area network connect to it, but it definitely works when everything is on the same machine.

I'd infer that Roblox made it so that multiple computers can join if connected to the same network. If that wasn't the case then why even have the server?

Just tested, and two computers on the same network won't connect with one running server. There might be some hidden way, but it's not that easy.

Zabije, once you have a moment to test it, let us know if it worked.
