| v1.1 made it MPI, Fixed the lowcases. |
| v1.2 It creates really better names, now. |
Sorry my friend but as I don't see the point with this system, yes it randomizes a name but for what use? Are you going to lauch a game just to find out a name to your hero and then close the game?
I think the documenation sucks badly as there aren't any ^^
Also I don't see why there are multiple triggers as this could be made in one single trigger, large thought.
Also you should make some kind of option/features as the name generated will auto be the name of the player or a float that goes with a unit til you want to change the name and it will be destroyed. Or RPGs that want their cities different named every game.
Those above were just examples and tips but for now I would rate 2,5-3/5 cause yes I don't see any use of this, sorry friend

Well, maybe you won't find any use for it, but some people will need this. And yes, it can be used in many ways, also to lauch a game just to find out a name to your hero and then close the game...

}Doesn't work to meNice system, inspired me to write my C++ cross-platform equivalent (kinda faster too
Here goes:
EDIT: The lowercase 'a', 'e', 'i'... are added so that it picks them more often than the others (don't remember the english word

To get a specific letter more, add it once more to the right array.
.
Doesn't work how? You just keep pressing ENTER and you get names...
It's not rocket science
Hero - Set hero proper name to "Hero name"
