UpdateCharName (CMS)

Name	Type	By
updateCharName()	Definition	AFRLme

This small function allows you to quickly update a characters name on mouse over during runtime for any characters whose names you want to dynamically update.

Instructions

1. Add the main script to the Visionaire Studio Script Editor & set the script as a definition script.
2a. For any characters that you want to change the name of you need to include a value inside of their values tab & call it "character_name", & then inside of the String section you should include the default name of the character that you want to use.
2b. To update a characters name you would do something along the lines of this inside of an execute a script action part...

Characters["Tom"].Values["character_name"].String = "Jerry"

3. You should also create a condition in the conditions tab for the character & name it something like "name_discovered" & set it as false by default. Change it to true when you want to use the new name. 4. Inside of the actions section of any character you want to change the name of you will need to create some actions like this...

if condition "name_discovered" is true
execute a script

updateCharName()

end if

Main Script

function updateCharName()

 local n = game.CurrentObject.Name.TextLanguages

 for i = 1, #n do

  n[i].text = game.CurrentObject.Values["character_name"].String

 end

 game.CurrentObject.Name.TextLanguages = n

end
