If you are using mirage, you might have to rewrite a decent amount of code for this. I removed most of that code from my engine, but I "believe" that the way it loads the account and character that it will prevent multiple characters to even be on.
If I have time I might download MS again and see if I can help.
I think that you will need to change the AccountRec cause it often checks if the "account" is in game rather than the character. Also you may need to move much of the AccountRec information into the PlayerRec.
If I understand you correctly, you plan to allow someone to create an account and create multiple characters and log more than one on at the same time? Kinda like some of the muds out there that allow you to multi?
*Note: The way the other muds do it, is they don't have "accounts" and then characters under the accounts. Instead you just have a character. And if someone wishes to multi they create multiple characters. If you don't have the programming skills to rewrite the code so that a player can have 1 account and multiple characters on at the same time. You could easily just get rid of the multiple characters and account code. And just have it so you create a character, rather than create account and then create characters. This would leave you with more character files, but it would be easy to log multiple characters in.
*If I am incorrect about anything, I apologize.
