I got logged out again and I'm at home...


It shows that your IP Address changed.

Are you connected to multiple wifi? Maybe your device keeps switching between two connections?

This time the two IP Addresses are entirely different, but both trace to you. So seems like you switched from one connection to another rather than just your IP Address rotating.

I think I only have one wifi...is there any chance you can show me the changes?

I'm so confused...

I adjusted the error message to display the IP Address change.

I was very confused when I got back on my computer and received this message:

I didn't know iP addresses could change?

I am still trying to get things figured out. I've added that error message (and others) so that when you guys randomly get logged out, you at least can see why and can try to figure out a pattern if there is one.

I am also tracking these forced log outs and trying to figure things out from that as well.

Also, I removed your screenshot because you shouldn't share your IP Address publicly, as it can be used to trace your location.

As far as IP Addresses changing, either:

1) You've changed connections. Maybe your device is bouncing between multiple wifi's?
2) If it's the same subnet, which your screenshot was not, but if it is, your modem/device could be set to rotate or use dynamic IP Addresses.
3) The session was leftover and it's just spitting out your last known logged in location.
4) Things are still bugged and the server tried to assign you someone else's session.

I am trying to prove and make sure #4 is 100% not the issue. If so, then I can ease these restrictions so that they aren't so annoying. Security is always a balance of being secure and being reasonable.

I adjusted the authentication check for IP Address to be a little less strict.

It should now no longer log Players out who use dynamic IP Address or rotating IP Addresses.

It will still log you out though if you change connections to a completely new IP Address.

It keeps logging me out saying "Your IP address has changed", and I'm just doing what I normally do (check my stable and hatchery, and explore the world). Please try your best to fix this! Thank you!

Can you leave it for one more night? I'm curious to see if it cancels after tonight or if it is stuck.

If it's stuck, I'll fix it for you tomorrow.

Sure thing, I've left it alone. :)

Was your Stablehand released overnight? Or is it still hired for -0, or whatever it is, days?

Just adding in as well Krin, my stablehand was also showing as -0 yesterday. This morning it had expired and I was able to select a new one.
