Btw, why have the SoD stream on a different port? Titanium and SoF already share one, requiring the login server to check what client is connecting, why not put SoD on the same port and just have it check between 3 clients instead of the original 2?

Because it handles login stuff a bit differently and uses some different opcodes. Unfortunately, at the time that you submit the login, all clients appear to be the same, so the server has no way to know to reply to SoD in a special way as is needed. So, we just have it use a different port, so the Login Server knows right away how to treat it.
