"You are connected to the game. Are you sure you want to close?" displaying when typing quit after connecting via Lich via #lc <profile>

Genie doesn't appear to detect that I've issued the QUIT command and prompts with the dialog box "You are connected to the game. Are you sure you want to close?" upon exiting Genie. When selecting yes, Genie then closes.

I connected again via Lich, waited for 2 mins or so, issued quit and genie closed as expected. I usually run two characters at once... funny enough one secondary account I was using earlier just had its billing cycle expire so I can't login to test.

I'd almost guess this seems like it might be a lich bug?
If Genie and lich are still technically connected even though lich isn't connected to DR anymore.

it's an issue with Genie waiting for Lich to fully disconnect. I've had it happen for ages. usually just waiting a short period of time and you wont get the error. If you've issued the quit command to the game and you see the game exit out it is safe to just exit. At least I've never had an issue when doing so.

If you typed

,ka

And wait for all lich scripts to exit, you can quit Genie without getting that message. I get that message as well. But it's because you have active lich scripts running when you quit. If you quit with no lich scripts active then it won't cause that.

Thanks guys, I'll test this today. Mostly wanted to report it incase something needs to be done in Genie to handle shutdown of lich or something going on in the game instance differently. I'll try the ,ka before quitting to see if it exits normally.

exit doesn't work while this issue occurs. The icon bars are still all colorized so Genie for sure doesn't think it's disconnected. Kind of weird that #exit doesn't work right?

Ahah, I found a crash window in the background:

Okay, so after clearing the error, #exit still didn't work. I executed #var connected 0, this put genie into a disconnected state and I was able to close normally.

I think this can be closed, sounds like there isn't really a good way to get Lich to properly tell Genie to exit.
