Add Ability to Login Thru Different User

[szong]

Celestics here. Would be nice seeing a bot update scores and message the stream as opposed to the broadcaster spamming scores every split. Simple thought: choose the channel to connect to and broadcast data there.

Potential Problems:

• Arbitrary users can connect to your channel and spam to it with their "splits"

Need some thoughts before proceeding, as the spam factor can be real. We could just make one centralized bot that does everything (although this brings on a slew of other problems). I'll avoid developing anything for now until we get this resolved.

I thought a bit about it, and here's my specs:

• The bot will always need your credentials, to know on which account he needs to connect. This way, You can't connect to someone else's chat and spam the hell out his chat with SplitsBet messages.
• You'll be able to select 3 options for the bot:
  • Use your own account to send messages (No need for extra credentials since you already entered yours)
  • Use the SplitsBet account to send messages (Connection with a token or something ? Need to do it securely) -> I'll create the account soon
  • Use another bot's account for people who have a custom bot on their own (Extra credentials needed)

I think that's a decent way to turn this out. Feel free to add your opinions or ideas.

I think I want a Credentials Manager in LiveSplit that allows you to log into any service with as many users as you want and then you can select which user to use when sharing (I guess you could select a default user). The Credentials Manager would also solve these issues then.

That would be just perfect !
