currently, there's no ingame check for password length when a player tries to reset it with the [password command, and the game launcher has a cap of 16 characters in the password field, so, if a player sets a password longer than 16 characters, it will require an admin reset for it to be able to log in the game again. If the player changes the admin account password for something longer than 16 characters, then they are out of luck and have to fiddle with the accounts.xml in order to join their world again.
the password updates suscefully.
password caps at 16 characters.
Proposed solution: add a check for string length and give the player a message when they try to change the password for something that will lock them out of the game.
