[Trigger] Name Changing Trigger

[Flamingo!]

Hello.

..
......

Well, the name pretty much says it all. I need a trigger that changes your name when you say a certain phrase. like so...

Flamingo: -name Poop
Poop: Yay

I would love this to be in GUI but if its in JASS I'm fine with it. Thank you, and I will give credits!

~Flamingo!

Use -name as the trigger to the player types text event then just change the player's name to that of the after text.
In gui there is a player change name action and the ablily to cut a string out of a string

Like. . .
DrSuperGood: -name dooGrepuSrD
//-name detected, running actions
//Get all text after "-name "
//Change triggering player's name to that of the extracted text
dooGrepuSrD: DrSuperGood is now fully backward compatiable LOL. . .

Note the // represent a noobish interpretation of what the game engine should be doing.

Event - Player1 red types -name as a substring
condition - none
actions:
-Set name of (triggering player) to Substring 6,30 (entered chat string)

Thanks both of you! Everything worked except for:

dooGrepuSrD: DrSuperGood is now fully backward compatiable LOL. . .

~Flamingo!

Wrong posted anyway -,-

That was meant to be a joke. . .
Basicly it was added to explain why I chose that name in the example, because it is my account but backwards.

Yeah i used a name changer in a map i made a while ago. The only problem with it is it makes it hard to ban people/whisper/add to friends so i would create a leaderboard or something that stores the original name of each player that people can look at. People will do ALOT of bad #@$% if they know they cant get caught for it.

 

[Dr Super Good]

No need since banlist automaticly stores their orignal names.
Thats why banlist is so useful.

You can always store the player's original name into a variable and use like:

-realname Red (Red's Real name is ...)


-Orc_Tamer
