Alrighty then...as I was looking through optimizations, I stumbled upon how to clear players and such easier:

Code:
Sub ClearPlayer(ByVal Index As Long)
Dim EmptyPlayer As AccountRec

Player(Index) = EmptyPlayer

End Sub


I've also stumbled upon a problem with this. For strings that are given a max length property (like Name As String * NAME_LENGTH) the value of that string is given the number of spaces the property's number is (so for Name it would be given 20 spaces, since NAME_LENGTH is 20). So now every check for If Player().Whatever = "" or vbNullString, the value will return opposite of what we want...for example:

Code:
Function IsLoggedIn(ByVal Index As Long) As Boolean
    If IsConnected(Index) And Trim$(Player(Index).Login) <> vbNullString Then
        MsgBox Player(Index).Login
        IsLoggedIn = True
    Else
        IsLoggedIn = False
    End If
End Function


That will always return true and won't let anybody login.

What's the best way to solve this? I know to just set them = "", but that's too tedious...there has to be another way than going through all the Clear subs and checking all the strings in the array and making sure they're set to "".

Setting them to something is the only option. String = vbNullString is the easiest.

Could I just remove the fixed lengths on the strings? I don't think they're needed, really...just do a length check to verify it's good when they register and so on.

It makes things a bit easier, but it's not needed. Go ahead and take the limits off.

You'll need to make sure everything that is a fixed length string is still working as it should.

Alrighty then...thanks for the help. The source is looking nice :) It's much cleaner than Elysium's is right now.

I know, it was really simple. I just thought there was an easier way with the empty array to clean it out without giving it the spaces.
