No upper limit it defaults to 5 but can be set by an immortal. Not to bad of a login screen, I just kind of tossed that in for the time being lol. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/account-system-ideas-4751/&p=23391#p23391 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 18:29:58 CST LoP Codebase nobody@example.com (Remcon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/account-system-ideas-4751/&p=23390#p23390 While I prefer to login to an account and then pick which character to play, I suppose being able to log into a character directly (using the account password) would be nice, as long as your account and character names are distinct. :) When logging out, I think I'd always want to end up at the account screen though. I'd also suggest making the menu a bit tighter, but that's also my preference. Do you have an upper bound on characters per account? My ideal login screen would look more l https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/account-system-ideas-4751/&p=23390#p23390 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 16:00:30 CST LoP Codebase nobody@example.com (Quixadhal) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/account-system-ideas-4751/&p=23388#p23388 Well I dont have an existing player base since not hosted anywhere, but since someone might I went ahead and made it so existing characters can be used for an account as long as you know the characters password. On login you have to login to your account or create one, after that you can make a new character or login to an existing one. When you create one or login to one it will add it to your account list of characters and you no longer need the password for that character. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/account-system-ideas-4751/&p=23388#p23388 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 22:52:40 CST LoP Codebase nobody@example.com (Remcon) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/account-system-ideas-4751/&p=23386#p23386 What happens when you create a brand new account for the first time? IE: I vist your game and want to play... do I have to roll a character FIRST and then make an account to tie it to, or can I create an account first and then create a new character from there? Personally, I prefer having the account system be primary and required, but since you probably have an existing playerbase to appease, I can see not forcing it on them out of the blue. :) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/account-system-ideas-4751/&p=23386#p23386 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 20:39:22 CST LoP Codebase nobody@example.com (Quixadhal) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/account-system-ideas-4751/&p=23385#p23385 [code] Enter your character's name, or type new: remcon Password: You are currently logged on account Remcon.
