Nickname and realname limitations

Post by sp4wn_ »

What are the limitations for the nicks and realname? I mean which characters are allowed?

I tried to search this info on the Unreal manual and faq but my search was not successful.

Thank you in advance.

Well the nickname length is obvious, every time you connect Unreal sends "NICKLEN=30." Realnames though are limited to 50 characters.

Codemastr, thanks, but I was referring which characters are not allowed (i.e.: *, ~,...).

I knew how to know and manage the length of nicks. :)
