This is an unknown silent error currently. If a client is logged in and swaps their wifi connection, by using a VPN, proxy, or just a turning off and on their wifi it will cause some sort of error. The client side shows the exception but the server does not. Some how the client is not being removed from the clients list in Temp.py when this happens and is capable of storing a "n" number of un used or blocked usernames that you cant log back in with.

Fixed, I fixed this when fixing the time issue. I added heart beat messages to check every 5 seconds if the server never got a FIN packet / datagram / etc.
