    Saving passwords in the login screen

    I'd like to be able to save my password in the login screen. A few MMOs I've played on do this.

    I read on the old forums that this used to be an option but Citan removed it because it worried out some players. If he was willing to put it back it could be an on/off toggle in the options screen, and left to 'off' by default.

    If it's returning in the GUI update, thumbs up to that and I'll happily wait.

    Why would I want to do this? Different people have different security needs and Citan already recognized it could be useful and implemented it in the past. I'm just asking that it be added back in for people aware of the risk/benefit.

    It varies wildly by platform and password storage system. Eventually, they're using the Steam authentication system, which would solve the problem.

    Until then, I use a script to launch the game.
    Code:
    security find-generic-password -wl "Gorgon Game" | pbcopy
    open -a /Applications/ProjectGorgonLauncherMac.app
    exit 0
    This grabs the password from storage, puts it in the clipboard, and then launches the application. You have to set the permissions on the script, too.

    I honestly don't get what the issue is with typing a password.

    - So elaborate you're worried you'll forget it?
    - Just lazy and hate typing it?

    Mate...

    I get if you're worried about key logging or ghosting but still.

    Since the game supports exceedingly long passwords, using XKCD's solution also works. https://xkcd.com/936/
