[General] Prevent hero suffixes

[EdgeOfChaos]

So, for some reason when I make multiple heroes of the same type, a suffix gets added on, like II or III. This is really annoying and looks bad, since the hero name is the type of the unit. Is there any way to prevent this from happening?

This is because the "Text - Proper Names Used" value in the Object Editor is exceeded. Are you setting it to 0 or 1? If you want heroes to never get the roman numeral attachments to their names, set "Proper Names Used" to a very high number (999). By default it is set to the number of names in the Proper Names section.

suffixes can only be shown in the editor.
And it can be removed by just changing it in the object editor, one row or two away from the normal unit name.

Thanks. Going to do that!

That's not what I'm talking about

Set "Proper Names Used" field to 1. This will not cause numeric differences between duplicate heroes as it was intended for campaign heroes which can have multiple stunt doubles for cinematics.

Setting the proper names used field to 1 or 0 will remove the hero suffix's/roman numbers however you'll only be able to use the first name if there's more then one. Marine's suggestion is likely the best one if you want more then one hero name per hero.
