Me and my brother have always wanted to play FFO together over the same router, but since FFO's multikey check boots anyone with the same IP address, we can't. With the addition of computer_id, the addition of this should be a breeze. Course, I do see some room for abuse. Yes, no, maybe? _________________________________________

Might not be a bad idea, especially if people in dorms start playing or something. _________________________________________ The lions sing and the hills take flight.

Resolve that issue and I'll add it. _________________________________________ ScouSin: Damn you Gaku!

The game Dragonball Generations has mechanics in the game that punishes you for interacting with your alts. Punishing you by telling you to not interact with an alt and permanently deleting the item you muled. Problem is, it means they can't interact with legit partners, and making permission for that puts us back to square one. _________________________________________ Censorshit is a bitch.

Group: Members Posts: 275 Total: 708	That's exactly what I said, there's no real point to doing this. Only solution I can come up with is allowing them to interact, but flagging players who take the piss out of the system so that it makes them unable to multikey. How to prove that however is where it gets tricky. The whole idea just goes around in circles. _________________________________________ Censorshit is a bitch.
