Set Proper name to unit by writing a string?

[Slaydon]

Title says it all, i want my player to write something and the Proper name of the unit will be set, he presses OK and then a dialg comes up: Are you sure you want to be named: LOLCAPS ?
Yes
No, but that dialog can i make myself.
But i need one of these Conditions

If
Entered string on Name equal to true
Then
Run Dialog Trigger
Else
Run Back Trigger

and on the back trigger it would be this

Select a name for your character
Back, ill create the dialogs, but i need help on the If Then Else

Something like this? (it's impossible, by the way).

You can not set the proper name of a hero. You can atmost choose one of the existing hero proper names that you added to the hero unit object and even then they will likly have I,II,III,IV etc next to them.

Can't it be done trough Jass or vJass?

Since this is the Last thing i need in my selection system, except all the 12 models , It could be Hero Name aswell, but it would be better with Proper Name

 

[ap0calypse]

Impossible...
You can use a floating text above the hero, that's the best you can do.

What Dr Super Good meant, if I am correct, is that you can preset the hero names (you can choose multiple) and then you can create a small system so you can choose a name between the preset ones.
You cannot make the players choose a name for themselves.

Vampirism fire got it, but thats player name, i think there should be a possibility to change the Units name then.

 

[ap0calypse]

Player name is something completely different, that is a very, very, easy, little system xD

There are limits to what the World Editor can, this is one of them...

Would it work that Game Cache will save a Variable that collects the string that the player is writing and it would look like hes name is LOLCAPS for an example, so just make a trigger like this:

• Cinematic - Chat thing: From Mr.Bignoob: Welcome to my house + Custom_Name + what can i do for you today?

 

[ap0calypse]

Ohh, you mean for a cinematic?
Then it's possible -.- I thought you wanted to change the hero name itself... (or something).

Just save the string as a variable...

 

[Slaydon]

No, i wasnt always thinking about a cinematic, but in a cinematic, you will also need that, ye. But i wanted to change the Hero Name itself, its for the oblivion map.
EDIT: What event shall i use? maybe i could have a whole trigger that you could show me, I also need a condition for that Custom_Name is a string with letters equal to true

EDIT: Solved the Event, now its the Condition


EDIT: There isnt a code for Variable data that i can put inside that Proper name thing?

Like the abilities got damage data??

 

[Slaydon]

bump

 

[ap0calypse]

No, you cannot use those codes for names.
