2. Player Display Name Uniqueness​

The setting specifies whether players' display name is required to be unique within the title region. The configuration is specified during the creation of the title region. Since it involves existing display name data, it is not easily modified afterward. If the modification is needed, please contact the PGOS team.

  • Limit character count of specified character set

    This is an optional setting. It specifies the allowed range for the total number of characters in the nickname that belong to a specific character set. Currently, only configuration for the CJK(Chinese, Japanese, Korean) character set is supported. If configuration for other character sets is needed, please contact the PGOS team.

  • Regular expression for verification

    This is an optional setting. It specifies the regular expression that the display name should match. If the game has more complex validation requirements, this setting can be used. The following screenshot shows an example where a display name cannot contain the characters '{' and '}'.

4. Modification Restrictions​

The setting specifies the modification restrictions for player display names. There are three policies, and the default policy is: "Game clients can modify their display name anytime".

Three policies:

  • Game clients can modify their display name anytime.
  • Game clients are restricted by a cooldown period when modifying the display name: Cooldown special hours after each name modification.
  • Only game servers have the authority to modify the display name, although game clients are allowed to set their display name for the first time.
