      There's no need to disable 2 factor Authentication google, you can simply set-up an App Password on your account.


      To setup an app password:


      1. Visit here while logged into your Google account: https://security.google.com/settings/security/apppasswords
      2. Select App > Other. Name it whatever.
      3. Generate the password, then copy it.
      4. Paste that pass into your login screen on PokeFarmer.
      5. You're now able to log-in! If you get a generating error, just press Start Bot again and it should work.
      If you've already saved the regular pass and it's just constantly trying to start with it. Either delete or edit Settings.json in the Cache folder of the bot!

      Hope this helps! :)

      Thanks! xD
      I've used this on a few apps in the past but it's a somewhat unknown feature.

      Could you sticky it? :p

      Reactivate 2-factor Authentication and you should have access to app passwords

      After launching you can zoom out of Bossland GmbH HQ and setup your location via leftclick.
