move_character cheat help

[Robertclive]

How do you move characters with surnames because it never works for me.Also,how do you move armies like captain Jerald because I type in the whole name and it fails.

i cant remember distinctively, but i believe you must underscore it without taking any spaces. so say the guy is Alexandros Remenos it would be
move_character Alexandros_Remenos
however, that mght not work so dont put underscore in and keep the space. if that made sense to you, well done! it boggled me just typing it

SunTzuman, that's not how you do it.

The correct form is move_character "Alexandros Remenos" 100, 95

Preserve the space between the first and last names, and put quotes around the whole thing.

If the last name has two parts, replace the space within the last name with an underscore, like this:

move_character "Dietrech von_Saxony" 100, 95

Do not use epithets/nicknames such as "the Terrible" Use the character's origional name instead.

If the character has only one name, use it like this:

move_character "Alexandros" 100, 95

No, they can be used. You just have to enter "Captain" as the first name.

I never knew that. hmm

Only Problem with the Captains is that most of the time there are more than one with the same name. So he just moves the one from the faction first mentioned in the descr_strat.
