Linux world crash - incompatible client

[John Adams]

By mistake, I launched my 1205 client to connect to our Dev server which did not have the 1205 opcodes yet. Normally, this is okay - the world will just deny connection and move on. However, this time, it crashed. Here's the backtrace, if it means anything.

Code: Select all

11:08:57 E World     : Incompatible version: 1205
11:08:57 I World     : Removing client from ip: 68.98.218.5 port: 19855

        0 Spawn Group Association(s), 0 Spawn Group Chance(s)
11:08:57 D Zone      : Starting zone shutdown timers...

I am not sure the World should be launching zones until after a client has been verified, but that's another issue.
