Since Wednesday is usually one of the more quiet days, I added a few major changes behind the scenes in for today. These might break things, so let me know if they do.

The main change is the ID that the server uses for every player. This will help a couple of neat things in future, soooo it kinda had to be done (plus the ID it used before was simply the socket handle, which - while not sensitive - isn't the best thing to share).

What might break though are actions you perform, or interactions with others:
  • Casting skills
  • Shopping
  • Trading
  • Public Chat
  • Grouping
  • Seeing actions others do
  • Friends list (showing them online and staying up to date)
  • Yells

I did some testing, and it seems things work, but you never know.

So, try to test these things - test them with friends, run a world boss or a quick dungeon to see if everything seems to work as usual. If I spot anyone while I'm on, I'll do the same.

Looks like most of the things work. Death found a couple of bugs with equipment showing up in bags, which will be fixed next reboot. :3
