In my game I store player data on a database.
So I have a table called “players” with a unique record id.
Now I would like to have two more fields:
Private_PlayerID : that can only be seen by the player and I would like it to be unique and of equal length
Pubblic_PlayerID (like tag) : that can be seen by all the players of the app to uniquely recognize users with the same names (equal length)
But I do not know how to create these two unique ids. Other games I see that use numbers and letters but creating a string of equal length.
What can I do to get this?
I’m using PHP and MySQL
