Bug: impersonating another PC when it's offline

Unread post by Deragnost »

So here's the thing, while I was hunting Yuan-Ti with Karai, something weird happened. While crossing a door I literally became another character. I'll put a screenie here afterwards. And anyway, I couldn't move at all. Fun thing is, the other character was also offline when that happened. And he probably logged off while sneaking. I'll give you the screenies. Also they were not in our party, but... apparently Callo became part of it without even consenting or whatever! :think: And, yeah, I could even see his Character Sheet - which I won't share here of course. But yeah.

So, uh... I logged out and logged in, eventually - and the problem was probably solved. Still... this happened :lol:

This is an exceedingly rare bug that sometimes occurs when two players on the server are router-sharing without using the Client Extension (not even necessarily you or the person you became, it could be completely uninvolved players).

Relogging should indeed resolve the issue.
