I can also see and play servers from that IP.
But that specific port is not on my server list and I can not connect to it...
What is this I don't even... ?!

... a firewall/router/ISP is blocking messages from/to that specific port ... your IP is blacklisted on that CS2D server instance (normally should only happen when you try to attack the server)Easiest thing to try would be to try again later or try restarting CS2D. If that doesn't help you can try restarting your system and if that doesn't help you could also disconnect from the net and try to get a new IP assigned that way.
If all that doesn't help there probably really is something which blocks the connection somehow.
It happened after I added lua command to restart server by running this batch file:

And yes, CS2D servers have a protection mechanism which puts IPs which send an unusual amount of messages on a blacklist. All traffic from blacklisted IPs is ignored entirely by the server so for people with a blacklisted IP it will look like the server is offline / does not exist (this is a funny trick to make dumb script kiddies think they successfully crashed a server even though the server is actually still up and running).
mp_floodprot and mp_floodprotignoretimeLua scripts run on the server and don't trigger this.
If you have other external scripts which cause enough UDP traffic to trigger this system then you're most likely doing something really wrong and should consider to change your system.
