Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

No worries. Just when I saw CPU RESET I thought perhaps MMBasic had been given the 'Big Red Switch' ! The only Konstant is Change |

There are some sharp minds on this. With the next beta I will make the 3 second delay apply to both a successful and unsuccessful PIN entry - also make it possible to set a permanent PIN. Geoff Graham - http://geoffg.net |

What would be the point of a delay with the CORRECT PIN? Is this also just to "Trick" any hacking type attack - that will trick it into thinking that the correct PIN is still incorrect?(because of the delay, even when the PIN is correct) Smoke makes things work. When the smoke gets out, it stops! |

Hi Grogster, That is correct. It forces you to wait the full three seconds to see if you've guessed the PIN. You can't just wait a few milliseconds to see if the PIN is wrong then force a reboot to get the prompt back straight away so that you can retry without waiting 3 seconds. It's a nice solution and won't be a major inconvenience. If you are doing a long debugging session, you'd want to turn off the PIN lock anyway. Jimmy |
