Idea for new launcher

For those of us who routinely use multiple accounts what would be cool would be for it to be possible to configure the launcher to
launch x instances of eve with remembered accounts and also (optionally) remembered passwords and even remembered characters so with one button I can bring several characters to the game easily.

Please! :Big smile

+1 I don't see why this isn't already a feature.

I don't even multibox and I think this is a good idea.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

I agree with it being able to manage multiple clients for launching and updating. but storing passwords for automatic login is pretty much always a bad idea. mind you, if they were to implement this in a manner that was actually secure, I wouldn't complain Smile

I don't see anything in the TOS that would prevent using a player-written script to *launch* the game, and I know it can be done quite easily in python or bash.

Just don't try to bypass any of the CCP stuff and you're clean.
