Dear PA Team, thank you for your efforts in building the game. However, I'm currently unable to play the alpha due to a minor bug. While your store, the forums etc support passwords with special chars, the game does not. There is a bug filed and I voted for that already: http://pa.lennardf1989.com/Tracker/inde ... ask_id=118 Please fix that. Being a developer myself I know this should be a quick-win. Thanks
upd, don't seen that your problem with launcherl. I try to find out where it's store saved login/password. Probably there is way to directly edit them too. If you are really developer or at least good with computers I got solution for you: viewtopic.php?p=740308#p740308 I think direct SQLite editing will fix special chars problem, let me know if that's not helps, I find out other way for you.
Thank you for your reply. However, I don't have issues w/ c&p. I can remember my password and it works with the store & forums. That's why I think some characters are escaped or stripped, thus creating a different hash of my password. Which obviously results in a login error. Escaping strings and/or stripping special chars isn't uncommon and a valid protection against attacks.
My solution isn't about copy/paste. Just some people have issues with passwords with specialchars in game, so I find way to bypass problem. Uber have united login server, it's same for forum/store/launcher/game. So that's problem in launcher. It's actually doing something wrong and right now I try to find out why. Aren't you C# programmer? PS: Actually I found where launcher store data: But unfortunately launcher doesn't store user/password, only session id. So if we want to bypass problem with your authentication I need to built some tool which get you this id.
