Need help making a "renaming" trigger

[DoomJim]

Hi, I'm a complete dumb when it's about triggers... And not being successful at learning, so I guess I can try to ask for help
This shouldn't be a big ass trigger, I think it's simple since it shouldn't have many actions.
What I basically need is, when a player, for example, will type -name Hiveworkshop, it will display his nickname (in chat, and if you hover over his units/buildings/stuff) as Hiveworkshop, instead of his original name.
Is it hard to make? If it's not, may I get a screenshot or code of a trigger that will make it work like that?

This Trigger allows players to change their own name by a chat command.

• Set Playername
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -name as a Part String
    • Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -name as a Part String
    • Player - Player 3 (Blaugrau) types a chat message containing -name as a Part String
    • add further Players, if you want them
  • Bedingungen
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Length of (Entered chat string)) Greater as 6
      • Then - Actions
        • Player - Set name of (Triggering player) to (Substring((Entered chat string), 7, 99))
      • Else - Actions
        • -------- Do Nothing cause only "-name " was written. --------

You forgot to test if the chat message prefix is "-name"... Your current trigger will rename a player's name to something silly if they type something like "You can change your name using -name if you want!".

I'm so lame, I can't find where you choose "Lenght of entered chat string) in if conditions.
It just says Entered chat string equals number. How do I set it to length and the condition to greater instead of equal, there's either equal or nonequal.

Edit: nvm, found it, now testing
Editv2: Ty, it worked. Is it possible to make it so it will also change on the leaderbord?

just put an update action in the name change trigger

• Multiboard - Set the text for (Last created multiboard) item in column X, row X to (Name of (Triggering player))

i haven't tried it if it uses the "new" name but if it doesn't then just use the text string again

DSG is right.
A condition like this should be included.

• Conditions
  • (Substring((Entered chat string), 1, 5)) Equal -name
