[Trigger] Change certain Playernames on Mapstart

[Sorceress]

I tried playing around with namechanging on certain players joining my map, but it doesn't seem to react.
What am i doing wrong?

- On mapstart
- Checking player 1-8
- Check if playername matches
- Change playername to [whatever]
then nothing

Here's how i set it up:

• VIP
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 8, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Name of (Player((Integer A)))) Equal to Cutic
          • Then - Actions
            • Player - Set name of (Player((Integer A))) to Test Name
          • Else - Actions
            • Do nothing

Thanks

Try removing the condition, if it worked, then condition is the problem.
Try changing the event to elapsed time.

I would suggest doing such things at 0.00 elapsed time.

Hi, sorry for the late reply. Won't i need the conditions to tell which playername it should trigger on?
Also elapsed game time didn't do anything sadly.

It should work fine, code is okay. Could you post a sample map?

Change integer A to Integer Variable, because if you have another integer A loop that could be the reason.

I always remove the condition or change it when something is not working just to test if it was actually the condition what is messing it up.

Do nothing at the end is not needed you can remove it.

What should i add for the variable? Not that experienced with this..

It's in a private project sadly, would prefer not sharing it

Here's how it looks now:

• VIP
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 5.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 8, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Name of (Player((Integer A)))) Equal to Cutic
          • Then - Actions
            • Player - Set name of (Player((Integer A))) to Test Name
            • Player - Set name of (Matching player) to Test Name
          • Else - Actions
            • Do nothing

You create a new map for a sample map, so you don't have to share your project. There, you can re-create your bugged scenario and share it.

In action options after for each integer A, there is for each integer B, then after that there is for each integer Variable.

Make an integer variable and name it loop or whatever you want, then put it in place of integer A.

Every time you make a loop, just make an integer variable and use it for the loop instead of integer A or B.


Your current condition won't work because using 2 conditions together without (Or), means both conditions need to be there for it to work, and by adding two names in condition it will never work since no player can have both conditions.

Btw do you actually need to know the player name?
If not just remove the condition to change all players name or you can add the condition if player is playing.
