Unique ID generated is too long for the user to remember #3

Perhaps it would be better for the application to use the player's name as the ID? The ID generated might be too long for the user to remember. Although is it possible for users to have the same name, maybe the application can ask the user to pick another ID instead?

Team's Response

Hi, Thank you for your advice. However, I have to reject it because it is not a problem. In real-time, you still need to remember your player ID/name which is much longer than this. I would still prefer to allow the same user name for convience.

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: Although I find your point of allowing the same user name for convenience is valid, I think the ID could be shortened to less than 6 digits as I don't think it is necessary to be 9 digits long (1 million users running the program on the same computer with the same name seems sufficient)?

The user id seems to be unnecessarily long and makes it hard for the user to remember and hence I disagree that the issue should be rejected.
