Cannot connect to rust server with client.connect

This has probably been asked a thousand times, but after updating oxide, I can no longer connect to my server with any command (client.connect, connect {ip}, local host etc). I host it on my own rig and was able to connect to it locally on the same device for testing/playing. 
only changes that are known is updating oxide.

if its on your computer then you should see it in your CMD window
then its just 
connect localhost:28015
