NetworkNodeIDs for clients do not change when any clients disconnect. When a client disconnects, the corresponding NetworkNodeID bit in the [[NWMUDS:GetConnectionStatus|node_bitmask]] is cleared. When a client is connecting, the client is assigned the NetworkNodeID with the lowest corresponding clear-bit in the [[NWMUDS:GetConnectionStatus|node_bitmask]], then that bit is set.
