PC - Take Ownership (as GM) - not working

[Bhodar]

Hi there,

I wish to create a GM pc for my current campaign and the feature to take control of a pc character isn't working for me or the line "Owned by:" isn't updating. any ideas?

I just tested it with a player and I can confirm that I can't take ownership as a DM.

Noticed this the other day and forgot to report.

On the initial screen, where you set the password for your game. If you set up a GM name, that will work.

The bug is that "GM" is already written there, but it defaults to "". And every time you close FGU, it goes back to it.

I've known this to be broken for a while and keep forgetting to report it as well. Thanks Dr0W for the info. I've confirmed if I fill in the GM box in the lobby that it works. The most intuitive fix to me would seem to be 1. Default the GM box to my logged in user name if I'm in the host screen and 2. Make that field required before clicking start.
