Different IP addresses

Bug:
if Person 1 with IP address A joining game. Then person 2 with IP address B joining game causes person 1 to drop the game but person 2 can play. If person 1 try to join with address A again he will kick out person 2 with address B. And so on.

Reproduce (my situation):
-one public ip address opened my router and server.
- one client like evolve or hamachi with custom ip address.
- different persons with the two addresses joining after another.
- game gets darker and freezing (crash)

Solution:
Only one IP address source is at the moment playable.

It's a weird bug and mixing these methods isn't good anyways.

Everyone has to be able to connect to everyone, that's the thing.
If Host connects to A over a VLAN, and to B over a normal TCP, A<->B can't see each other on the IPs the Host has.

aureon is right. Also, 0.11.2 will have a mechanism to detect this kind of problems, so it will tell you this is the case, instead of just dropping one of the players.
