I'm trying to make a login system and I can't find out how to limit the number of characters you can enter with input. I've looked in the documentation and examples. Can this even be done?

What you can do is set up your own input system, to check for input, and make it stop when you've reached the max amount of characters.

why is 14 specified in some of the commands if the max # of characters is 8?

Nevermind I found it. 14 = Backspace right?
