Help! It doesn't work
1. Is java installed?
If not, install java
2. Is java an environmental variable?
If not, open your tab_online.lua file, go to line 28 and change "java" to your java executable. Example: "C:/ProgramData/Oracle/Java/javapath/java.exe"

This is a great idea, thank you for the coding effort.

However, it’s not implemented the right way. As this is not licensed properly, unsecure and requires Java it should be reworked.

set secure.enable_security = false

This is a bad idea and should never be publicly advised.

I’d recommend working on a PR for a save password feature in the engine instead.

is not licensed properly

I wrote my own license because I can't find one thats exactly like mine. And the password manager is something that I use since a year now and want to share, because it's very useful. I use my license now for every mod that I will publish.

should be reworked

Yeah! Would be better to write that in the engine. But I can't write c++, so this was the easiest way to implement.

They can use my own written ciphering method. :)

You doesn't need to turn your mod security off. That was a wrong assumption, because I hadn't tested it.
