What is the Trigger to change names ingame?

[Highblood'89]

Hi there, I want to know how can I change the trigger for ingame-namechanging like in "War of the Lost Kingdoms" or "parasite"?

Any help is greatly appreciated

Player-Set name: Set name of player 1 (red) to {test}

Hope that helped.:emote_smile:

For Player Names, Hereto said it right. As for Unit Names, they can't be changed in-game. You have to create separate units, and I think War of the Lost Kingdoms and Parasite use the way I just referred.

Yes, thanks you, but I meant as a command.

e.g. In War of the Lost Kingdoms you type it as a command (it is -name ...)

    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing - as A substring
    • Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing - as A substring
    • Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing - as A substring
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Player - Set name of (Triggering player) to (Substring((Entered chat string), 2, 10))

The Events can be found in Player - Chat Message Event List. The Substring 2 - 10 means they can only have a name with 9 letters (counting with the 2. Like 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. In total it's 9 numbers). The number 1 is already taken by the - symbol.


Also, please use introduce yourself to the Hive Community here, if you haven't done so yet.

Thanks you a second time, but to be honest I wanted that it works like this:
So if you type as an example ingame name HordeFreak, that you get the name HordeFreak.
