WAN access suddenly stopped

[chadwagoner-sf]

In the past day or 2 (Jan 7-8 timeframe), public IP access suddenly stopped with no real reason why.. Just 'failed to connect' message when trying to connect..

My setup is pretty simple, using base game (no mods) and the follow variable file..

SERVER_NAME=<server-name>
WORLD_NAME=<workd-name>
SERVER_PASS=<server-password>
SERVER_PUBLIC=true

After messing with the container all day, I added SERVER_ARGS=-crossplay and it seems to have fixed my issue..

Not sure if this is related to #552 but wanted to share my discovery in case anyone else has experienced this as of late randomly..

Have you verified that your public ip address hasn't changed?

To add, from what I could tell in the logs aka stdout from container.. It referenced query port 2457/udp and that's about it.. After adding the -crossplay flag, I see much more logging around playfab and resulting with Session "<server-name>" with join code <join-code> and IP <wan-ip>:2456 is active with 0 player(s)

Nope, WAN ip does not change as I have a static ip.. It seemed to have randomly stopped working very recently and started to dig into it today.. This isn't as much of an 'issue' as a headups/awareness
