Question: What does "Multi-alarm" mean?
Prev: Sharing a Computer to play OGame | Next: What goes into a Debris Field
The Question:
I’m trying to send my friend some deutrium so he can get nanites but it says “multi alarm fleet cannot approach”. What does that mean?
The Answer:
Multi-Alarm means that you and your friend are using (or have used in the past 24 hours or so) the same IP address.
This can be caused by sharing a computer to play OGame, or if you both have two computers on the same internet connection (like a broadband connection at home with multiple computers.
My suggested course of action is to contact a GO and find out what is causing this. Sometimes they will have you change a few settings. Sometimes they make one person start a new account in a new universe.
Turning of the IP-Check just because you want to can get you into trouble. Please contact a GO before doing this.
Please do not discuss methods of getting around the multi-playing. Not only will you get banned in oGame, but you will also get banned from posting comments here at OGame Tips.

But doesn’t the Admin realise that you’re hiding your IP and kicks you out?

Back at my house I always got the alarm when I tried to send resources to my brothers, but now that I am in a different country for a month I am not getting it anymore.

You can go on the same IP, as long as you have no fleet interaction (messaging is ok).
