Auto Login troubles
 
Auto login will capture my Name and password. Once I log off and try and log back on it will fill in the name just fine but the mud will tell me that the password is not correct. If I turn off all trigers and log back on and fill in the information manually I can log on just fine

This is a new install and the version # is 6.66

Any help would be apperciated thanks

being that this is a 6.66 question, might want to post this in the Beta forum.

First make sure your password is correct.
On the character selection screen, use the Edit button instead of the Connect button. Go to the Character tab and type the correct password into the Password box, Save. Try connecting to see if that was the problem.

Next, check your login triggers.
From the character selection screen, use the Offline button. Use the Triggers button to open the settings editor. Select the Autolog class. You should have two triggers, one for your name and the other for your password. Check the patterns to make sure they match what you see when you login. The trigger for your name should have the command,
#CH
The trigger for your password should have the commands,
#PW
#T- Autolog
They should both have the Prompt option checked.

Finally, check the atconnect alias. Use the Alias button to switch the settings editor to aliases. Make sure you have Show Inherited selected on the editor's View menu. Check for an atconnect alias in every folder. Usually, you should only have one, it should be in the System folder, it should be an Inherited setting, and it should be blank (no commands).

Hope this helps you.

Thank you for the suggestions. They did not fix the problem though but I learned a lot about zumd by poking around Smile

After looking at it more closely what is happening is when the prompt for the name apperars it sends the char name 4 times to the mud. If you would have anymore suggestions I would greatly apperciate it.

If your character name is being sent four times, you probably either have four triggers which each send it once, or one trigger which sends it four times, or some other combination which adds up to four (atconnect aliases also count), or (extremely unlikely) you have the name entered four times in the character file (same place where you checked the password).
