| 500      | To host a server, you need to port forward.                                                                                                  |
| 400      | <p>If you change your remote scripts it won't allow you to host. <br>Redownload scripts from the official repo and try again.</p>            |
| 500, 400 | <p>Only Latin letters, numbers and spaces are allowed in the server name. <br>Anything else isn't allowed and will throw you this error.</p> |

In the next update, it's gonna be easier to identify what's the problem. \
