Trouble connecting on DigitalOcean VPS

[drewmo]

I have been working today to try and get Superpowers Game running on a DigitalOcean VPS. I had this running a while ago with version 0.19.0 but wanted to update and use the newest version.

I followed the instructions provided on How to build and am able to run the server. Once I navigate to http://my_private_ip:4237 I can see the login screen. I enter in my password and it takes me to the hub, but all I can see is the empty hub with the words "Connecting..." showing up. I notice on the login screen I also see at the top left "hub:serverAddress" like the system cannot connect to my service. I have verified that the service is listening, and that the ports are accessible from outside, but I am just scratching my head.

I have tried using various versions of NPM, Nodejs, and superpowers. I have tried installing in different places in my server (including root and home directories.) I have tried changing my permissions and group accesses on my files and folders and still have no success.

My setup process has been: Create droplet, connect to droplet, git copy according to build instructions, build superpowers (keep running if there are build issues), npm server start, go to address, login, nothing...

I am just not sure what else to try here, I really am looking to get this running so I can play around on a chromebook and develop games with some friends. Any help that can point me in the right direction is very welcomed!
