Paste of username and password

Post by fragglerock1 » Thu, 21. Nov 19, 17:56

I would like to use the online functionality.
I have a egosoft username (or how could I post this :D ) However I use a password manager and though I don't know it exactly my password is 30 characters long and very secure (many caps and special characters etc)

This makes typing it arduous, if I could paste it into the logon box within the "Online Features" section then I would be able to use the features.

An alternative would be to pop out to a website and generate a key that way.

Anyway enjoying the game, thanks

I was in similar boat, but it's only a one time entry, so I just typed it in

To elaborate what is being asked.

The input field for Egosoft password in game is being reported as not supporting clipboard functionality. Most password entry fields do support clipboard functionality, and as such many people have grown dependant on it for entering long and secure passwords even if the practice itself is discouraged.
