Ya, I do kinda suspect that code could be the cause of the issue. It does actually seem to work the way I want it to from the testing I have done, but I haven't really checked to see what happens if I try to log in more characters than that.
Basically, I want my normal status 0 accounts to be able to log in 3 characters max at once. I then want my status 2 accounts to be able to login a max of 4 characters (1 more character) as a bonus for purchasing my contributor package. Then, I want anything over status 20 to be exempt from the IP limiting. As it is now, the code I have does seem to work to do exactly what I want, but the flaw you mention probably is a real problem. Maybe it is unable to select another client once the first one is removed, so it causes a world crash.
I would definitely be open to better ways of doing this! I know it hurts my head to think about the code for it, but maybe there is a simpler way of getting it done. As suggested in that thread, maybe just having it so that you can set the max number for all clients below X status. Then, for every point higher than that set status it would allow them to have +1 accounts logged in.
Ultimately, I think there needs to be code added (preferably with a rule option) to limit people to only being able to play 1 character per account. Then have the IP Limiting checked after the 1 character per account check happens. So, if someone already has a character logged in that might be ghosted, it will kick them out of the world instead of completely blocking them with IP limiting.
I will keep looking at this code and see if I can make it work better. However, professional help would be appreciated
I am going to try removing this temporarily from my server to see if that resolves my World Disconnect issue. It seems to have started around the same time I added this code in, but I also added alot of other stuff in at that same time, so it is hard to tell. I think this is a likely suspect if no one else is seeing the same exact problem that I currently am.
