Multiplayer: player name & game password

from Stardock Forums

We're about to start our first GalCiv III game, in multiplayer. However, there are two things we couldn't figure out yet:

1) Where do I change my player name?

2) Where can I set a password for my game, if I don't want strangers to join?

 

Thanks for your help!

1) what do u mean?

2) u.... can´t :( Atm u can only politely ask the player who join to quit... or just unpolitely kick ´em all

1) what do u mean?

The player name that identifies you within the lobby and afterwards within the game (e.g. "[player name]'s turn"). The game extracts some default name from Windows or Steam or the like, but I obviously want to use one that suits the race I'm playing.

definitely need passwords. I shouldn't have to kick people or hear them beg to play.
