RPG permanant name change

[Cheeder]

Say a character asks the player for his/her name. Whatever they type is set as their name and they cannot change it for the rest of the playing time.

I understand that there are maps which utilize name-changing functions, but is there a cap on time or ability to do it, and if so, how?

Thanks.

What are you talking about?

You cannot change a heroes name in game if you want that.

Search "name" in a GUI action trigger list and you should find the trigger to change a players name. When you have that, you can change the events, conditions, etc. For changing a players name.

For one time use It'd be:

Event: Player One types a message containing (triggering here) as a subtrings
Conditions: n/a
Events:
[Name changing code goes here)
Turn off (this trigger)

That will give you a one time usage for it, BUT you need to have one copy of the trigger per player.

You could just use a variable, so your trigger could go:

Event: A Player types a message containing (triggering here) as a subtrings
Conditions: If Player_Named[Player number of triggering player] = False
Events:
[Name changing code goes here)
Set Player_Named[Player number of triggereing player] = True
