Mission Load Permission Password
« on: January 22, 2020, 08:57:15 AM »

Mission Load Permission Password does not appear to be working. 

I set it from the "File|Mission Group Properties" dialog.

1.  It does not see be be getting persisted.  I fill it in and save, the close and reopen the mission file and the pwd field is empty again.

2.  If I fill it in an build, it does not prompt me when loading the mission offline or in a Custom Arena.

This would be very useful for uploading a mission that will be used in a mixed AI/Human event so it can be tested in the SEA by CM's and testers while keeping it from being able to be downloaded by participants and seeing where the intended routes will be.

That is it's intended purpose.

I assumed. 

So I tried it and it didn't prompt me, but I wondered if maybe that was intended as I was obviously the creator and maybe you were being clever.  ;)

Then I uploaded it and had Nefarious try it, but it didn't prompt him either.

I just re-checked my msg.   Nefarious didn't get prompted in a Custom Arena or the SEA. 

I didn't get prompted in Offline and I believe I tried a Custom Arena also, but I wasn't sure if that was because I was the creator.  I could see it not bothering to prompt the creator.
