2 Player IDs
I'm sure I've seen this somewhere, but I can't find it. I have started using another Soldier, and of course get booted off to make room for another supporting member. I thought there was a post that said to add the new soldier PID into game ID space in the User CP, but this doesn't seem to have worked. (I put it in the ArmA Game ID)
How can I add my second soldier to the list so I don't get kicked? I'd rather not have to keep swapping and changing my profile and waiting for it to update.
Thanks

It has to go into the 2142 ID space. Someone else posted that you can use the unused game ID spaces to hold your second soldiers ID thereby making the cut and paste quicker and easier.

There is no way to check if the PID is from the same account or another.

Yeah I do see the issue with giving access to other players. Nevermind..

Re: 2 Player IDs
What I do, is I put one PID in the "hobbies" category in my profile and the other in the "occupation" category. The "occupation" category is my serious business profile, whereas my "hobbies" PID is my anonymous name for when I want to play more relaxed. When I want to switch, I just copy/paste the one I want. I can even do that ingame now with X-Fire's web browser.
It seems to take a while for it to come into effect, though. I think it is after each map load.|TG-XV| Waldo_II

I believe it's 15 minutes roughly.

I believe it activates an electric shock wire on eroaks right foot and gets him to put in your new PID manually

Re: 2 Player IDs
