1.12 - How do I change my empire password?

If you need to change the PBW entry only--that is, you entered the wrong password into
the PBW system--please e-mail admin@pbw.cc and tell us which empire and which game,
and what the correct password is.

If you're changing it in the game, go to the Empire Status screen, and choose "Change
Password." Then e-mail the PBW admin as above with the new password.

In the near future we will be adding the ability to update this password Online without an
e-mail to the admins.

If you don't know the in game empire password, the game owner can reset it. [See 3.5] to
learn how.

3.5 - How do I reset a player's password?

With Version 1.49, Malfador added the ability for the game owner to reset a player's in
game empire password. This is very useful any time the in game password does not match
what is on PBW, like if the player changed it and then forgot, or had to be replaced in the
game and didn't tell anyone the password.

You have to run the turns offline to do this. Download the current turn files from the Game
Admin screen and then log into the game as the game master.

Click on the game menu button and then the options button. Then hit the reset passwords
button and highlight the empires you want to reset passwords for. The game will pop up a
box for each empire and give you the new password. Click ok and then close and then end
turn.

When the turn processes, unpload the files to the PBW as a replacment turn from the
game admin screen and then email the player their new passwords. They can change that
to something else if they want when they play the next turn.
