Feature request: reset password

[thejeff]

As an extension of this, it would also be nice if you could reset the password for yourself. So that you could change the password before giving it to a temporary sub, then change it back afterward.

Especially useful when someone subs more than once in the same game.

Same implementation, just allow it using either the master or the current password for the nation.

Oh man, seconded!

Who hasnt been bitten by this one? Anything that can help manage derelict players is a godsend.

for pbem you do not have this issue. Which is one reason that llamaserver is so popular I think.

Well, you don't have that issue *if* people don't password protect their pretender. I tend to sub a decent amount and can say anecdotally that even though I usually don't have trouble getting the password (thankfully) there usually is a password even on the PBEM games. I know I usually have a password on just out of habit, I'm sure I'm not alone.

That is regrettable, as it forces Llamabeast to manually bypass it, and there is absolutely no point to having it.
There will be penalties associated with nations that are pw protected in Kingmaker, as they were cautioned not to do it.

Not sure how much of a population penalty they will get, but it will be something.

Wow, command line password-changing would be amazing. Even more amazing would be command-line setting-to-AI. That, at a stroke, would make a colossal difference and mean there'd be virtually nothing I'd have to intervene with.

Please JK, please!

I'm not holding my breath for this one. But I can recover pretender passwords, so it isn't much of a problem to me.
