Didn't someone find a way to sort/save the character list? Or am I crazy?

[DoctorDitko]

Not that the two are mutually exclusive!

 

I thought I had seen someone post such a trick, but I've searched for hours and can't find it.

(My Duck-Duck-Go-fu is weaker than I thought!)

 

I've had to reinstall some Linux boxen recently and have automated great swathes of setup with a few shell scripts, but CoH always loads a random character list, which is frankly a pain. May the gods bless Lutris, though, it certainly helps get CoH working!

 

Any help?

Always random? Or random once after a rebuild? If the 2nd, that's normal. Which prompted me to do this thread today.

My character list is always in the same order.

I was having the problem of characters moving back to where they were too and it turned out it was because I'd unchecked "remember account name" on the login page. Since clicking that box they stay where I move them.

The link above might have it. I have not done it but I remember they said you re order it in the CoH files using file explorer not while in game

Thanks, guys!
Blackbird found the darn thing, much appreciation!

I'll pipe 'em through sort and go to town!

 

And as far as me being crazy? The jury is still out.

And if you are crazy, you're in good company! 😉
