Move character Cheat

Hello there; first of all I'm sorry if this question has been asked before, but I couldn't find much using the search engine.

At the moment I'm playing Stainless Steel mod for medieval 2, and I'm trying to convince Norway (as Ireland) to exchange a settlement for another. However, it constantly turns out to "Just declined". So I tried to use the cheat from Rome, force_diplomacy accept, but it doesn't work.
So now I'm trying to get a more experienced diplomat to talk to Norway and see if he is able to convince them. But he's all the way in Italy and I'd rather not have him walk for 10 turns before I can try to make the deal. So I tried all sort of move_character x,y combinations and I can't get the cheat to work. If someone can help me out making either of the cheats work, that'd be very nice! The diplomat's name is Patraic MacNally, by the way.

Thanks in advance!

first u have to have your mouse over the point you want him to stand and then type in the console - show_cursorstat ( lets say it's 285,126 )
Then type in - move_character "Patraic MacNally" 285,126

(Show_cursorstat and move_character are individual cheat codes)

if the diplomat has 2 names, like Kilij Murat, you must write it in " "
like move_character "Kilij Murat"
however if he has something like de,von,of in his name it must be like this
move_character "Someone of_Somewhere"
same goes for characters, captains, spies and so on

Thanks, that's what I wanted to know! I knew there were those complications with several names and stuff.. So now I know what to do, thanks! I did know about the show_cursorstat cheat though, but thanks anyways!

So the force diplomacy cheat doesn't work in Medieval 2? If no, is there maybe a minimod for Stainless Steel that gives you the force diplomacy option, like the minimod for EB on Rome?

1 additional information I want to add is that, if you want to move a character on you first play after initiating the game, as in without reload, you do not need the _ between von Hapsburg or of London. But after the first reload, the _ is required.
