Summary0006848: Name changing issue in MP
DescriptionA couple of things I just noticed trying out MP. One is that when I am trying to type in my name, the letter T, which I've got as my chat binding (don't recall if that's the default) keeps bringing up the chat window when I'm typing in my name. The second is that even after saving my name, it stays as 'default'.

E: I should note that after logging out back to the main menu, changing my name worked fine. Of course most people won't think about changing their name until they get into a server and see that they're named 'default'...

Personally I'd be very much in favour of a popup asking you to specify your on-line name if it's set to default. Or add a hidden flag that says if you've set your name or not.

Yep, you can't change your name while logged into a server -- and if you choose a new name, it gives you a whole new identity on that server. That way if you and a family member both want to play in one world with difference characters but with the same license key, you can, etc.

In 0.926 I fixed the bug where pressing T while typing in a textbox would open the chat entry thing.
