Issue by Wiggo32 Monday Feb 12, 2018 at 17:39 GMT Originally opened as DarkstarProject/darkstar - Issue 4555

I have:

Client Version (type /ver in game) : 30171223_0

Server Version (type !revision in game) : fae4c89

Source Branch (master/stable) : master

Additional Information (Steps to reproduce/Expected behavior) :

  1. Grab a buddy
  2. Start up FFXI from your FFXI "man cave" at the same time your buddy does and on the same IP. --- you may either---
  3. Laugh when you get to char select because you now have the option to select your buddy's characters and he has the option to select yours. --- or ---
  4. Log on as normal because lobby doesn't get 'confused' 100% of the time.

Here are my experiences with the Login Server and Game Server as far as character login goes:

  1. Confirm Wiggo's issue - this happens all the time. Especially if you're dual-boxing and you logout properly. You will not go to your account's char selection, you'll go to your last logged in account's char selection.
  2. Sometimes if you shutdown the client without properly logging off/shutting down/etc, you will be unable to login on subsequent attempts. Not sure if the session data isn't being deleted fast enough...or?
  3. Get a lot of 'invalid login attempt from what.ever.ip. Looking at it, I'm guessing related to session data from above, seeing existing entries.
  4. This one happens a lot: "login_parse:" CL_WHITE"<%s>" CL_RESET" has logged in %i times! Removing older logins.\n" It resolves the error, but breaks from the switch. So, people have to try again. It would be better if it resolved the error, then re-attempted login, so it's transparent to users and they're not confused (why can't I login?).

All in all, I think the login server just needs a few tweaks for better user experience.

I usually play with between 3-6 characters and have always had problems with windower's send addon. Whichever character I'm controlling my party with has to be logged in last, if I try and control my party with a character I logged in first there's a good chance send won't work. I've just gotten used to it but it's annoying. I wonder if it's related to this.
