I'm trying to make a system for a user to log into their account from across the internet. I can't seem to find a good way to do this. Any help would be very much appreciated.
#User Accounts

Their account along with data for their player will be stored either on the internet, or on my main pc. Acting as a data host of sorts.

Maybe look into Google Firebase or PlayFab.

Do you think it would be hard to add new accounts to the list, without having to manually go into the system?
knotty briar
What do you mean manually go into the system
tight edge
Like open up firebase and put in every account one by one

Oh
Not if you make an admin interface or something
Besides, users should be responsible for making their accounts, right?

Yeah
Would it be secure though?
Can't risk people getting their information stolen.

It will be secure if you make it secure

Can anyone help me with approaching Firebase, with the idea of creating accounts in mind.

brackeys has some videos on this
it uses a asset from the asset store, and it’s a little goofy though
it wont have the best security and the data limited is limited to one string (nothing a little bit of json wont fix)
but if you want full control over everything, use SQL
it’s not too complex, but you do have to host a server for it

Will the server cost money, or will it be hosted from my computer directly
I know I could look this up, but as I'm sure you know, it's easier to get answers like this.

Not too complex
I mean sure, sql statements can be pretty simple.
But as soon as you have any slightly more sophisticated sets of data, they can quickly become very long and complicated.

Both is possible

Alright thank you very much
