Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Password Managers and Server Login
« on: March 09, 2015, 09:32:18 am »Hi,
I stumbled across PlaneShift today and was immediately curious as I am running on Linux/x64 (Linux Mint 17.1 Cinnamon).
I proceeded to download the game, got over the first few hurdles, and was then greeted by a login screen that will NOT accept pasted passwords. I use a password manager (KeePassX for Linux, KeePass for Windows) and have over 500 passwords, none of which I know. I always use copy-and-paste so that I don't have to know all sorts of passwords to all sorts of sites around the world.
Unfortunately, the PlaneShift launcher on Linux refuses to let me paste my password. I am not about to change my splendid password habits just to satisfy PlaneShift.
So, please make it possible to paste a password into the Launcher's password field.
Also, you really ought to consider to revise the 5 or so security questions needed to get access to the forum. I had to do multiple googles for "underground stalactite" to find the last answer. Why scare people away even before they're gotten through the front door? All IMHO
I was so close to dropping PlaneShift right there and I suspect quite a few do so.P.S. While I'm jabbering, why aren't you guys on Github instead of SF? SF is the slowest collaboration site in the world ;-)
Thank you in advance and NO OFFENSE intended
