Tester information (Internal use only)

Tried several things but it doesn't seem to do anything for me.

  • Fresh install with launcher didn't auto-fill my name
  • Fresh install and removing any cache, re-entering uplink in launcher didn't auto-fill my name
  • Current install with an "empty name" and already an uplink, didn't auto-fill my name.

Maybe I'm missing something here?

As a side note, I assume clearing out your name to be 0 characters/empty doesn't actually count to have it auto-fill next time? If so, isn't that a bit odd? an empty name isn't going to be helpful at all. If not, ignore this line.
