I tried using two seperate TCP/IP ports at once but this didn't seem to work, as opening a second one seems to switch off the first, in spite of them being different port numbers.

I have yet to try using TCP/IP and UDP at once though, and am hoping this will yield better results... using UDP for just transmitting movements, and TCP/IP for the chat and other data.
