Figure 28 shows the game users pane.

You can set up new users or delete existing users on this pane. You can also assign one or more players to a user and change the positions of the players.

KubiTarock has four players. To each of these players, a user must be assigned. After the game is closed, the score of each player is booked on the game account of the associated user. The following types of users are defined:

• System user
  The system user on the current device is yourself. Each system user must control at least one player, all other players are simulated in an offline session. In an online session, on the other hand, only the players who are not controlled by online users are simulated. Unlike online games, an offline game allows the system user to control multiple players for analysis purposes. In an offline game, the system user always has the role of the game master.
   
• Online user
  In an online session, all system users on the involved devices are online users. After logging in to an online session, their profiles are synchronized on all devices involved. The first registered online user has the role of the game master.
   
• Simulator "Tarobot"
  This user is assigned to all players not assigned to a simulated user or to an online user.
   
• Simulated user
  These users are only used in offline games. In online games, all simulated players are directly assigned to the simulator "Tarobot".
   

In the user list, the profiles of all defined users are shown. The entries are ordered by an access key:

• System user
  In the user list, the current system user is listed under the key ".Me". The profile of this user cannot be deleted. "Me" is used as default user name. If you do online playing, you must enter that name instead the group administrator has assigned to you.
   
• Simulator "Tarobot"
  In the user list, this user is listed under the key "..Tarobot". The profile of this user can neither be deleted nor changed. "Tarobot" is used as user name and a predefined picture is used as user portrait.
   
• Simulated user
  You can define such a profile with any name and with a portrait, you prefer. The name and the key are the same.

Figure 28: Game User Pane

1. User list
   The existing user profiles are listed here. The first two items "..Tarobot" and ".Me" are predefined and cannot be deleted.
    
2.  Click this button to create a new user profile.
    
3.  Click this button to delete the selected user profile.
    
4. User name
   Here, the name of the user selected in the list box is shown. The name of a new user must start with a capital letter and must contain letters, digits, and hyphens only. The length is limited to 32 characters. If you do online playing, you must enter that name at the key '.Me' the group administrator has assigned to you.
    
5. User portrait
   Initially, a predefined picture is used for each new user. If you want to change that, you must click on the picture. The user photo pane is shown afterwards and allows you changing the picture. For online games, it is recommended that you select a suitable image for the list entry '.Me' so that your fellow players can identify you more easily.
    
6. Online-Password
   If you are group administrator, you can enter the password with which the respective user can log in to your online user group. As member of a user group, you only have to enter that password at the list key '.Me' the group administrator has assigned to you. The password must contain at least 5 and not more than 32 characters. Colons ':' and semicolons ';' must not be used as content.
    
7. Player position
   Here, you can change the position of the first player the selected user is assigned to. The order of the player 1 to 4 does not change thereby, and their positions are changed accordingly.
   In an online session, you should only change the position of the .Me entry. The positions of the other online players are assigned in login order automatically.
    
8. Player assignment
   Here, you can assign the selected user to one or more players. However, you cannot remove the assignment here. If you want to assign a different user to a player, you must select the profile of that user and change the assignment there. The selected user replaces then the previously assigned user.
   In an online session, the user assignment will be made automatically in the login order.
