Make sure you're changing serverStatsPort in the config and that it's the config in the directory you launch the game from (the source comes with several for some reason).

Yes, It's the stat-server, GameServer.startStatsServer (/Users/Adryd/Ogar/src/GameServer.js:919:21), default config as port 88, I don't see any advantage of that server right now. The statistics information also looks not updated when I press F5.

[Ephemerality]

It is supposed to update the server stats every minute (or as per serverStatsUpdate in the config). It's currently being used by Agariomods to provide a private server listing.
Are you sure it's getting changed in the right config? I have it running on my MacBook (Yosemite) and changing the stats port works here. [Game] Loaded stats server on port 667
If you set the port to 0 in the config, it should not load the stats server at all.

The ogar directory for me is /Users/Adryd/Ogar
i use sudo node Ogar to start and the log is:

[Error] Server could not bind to port! Please close out of Skype or change 'serverPort' in gameserver.ini to a different number.

the port is set to 25564 ive tried many different ports and i changed both the main port and the stats port (the stats port is 25563)

Adryd if you run netstat -an then that should show you what ports are being used.

[Adryd]

i know theres nothing running on the port i did that before i posted here

[Ephemerality]

And you're definitely modifying the gameserver.ini that is in the folder where your Ogar folder is, right? Not the one in src or the one in Ogar. (since you're launching it using node Ogar)

[maixuanhan]

@Ephemerality : hi, I see that there are too many issues with port number. Why don't you guys modify the output code of EADDINUSE error.

[Error] Server could not bind to port! Please close out of Skype or change 'serverPort' in gameserver.ini to a different number.

==>

[Error] Server could not bind to port: <PORT_NUMBER here>. Please read the README carefully.

[Adryd]

yes i am sure im moddifying it in the ogar folder. i changed both to make sure
ill just throw ogar into a windows vm and use the windows version

[vram4]

@maixuanhan I could add that, but some people dont even read the entire error message.

[CameronRedGem]

Well that is their problem if they don't read the entire message

[SamHep0803]

I changed the server port to 25565 and server stats to 25564
