Characters with long names

**zingo117** · August 20, 2010, 04:24 AM

Is there any way to identify characters with long names such as Sahale of the Hugaducayn (taken right from my Americas campaign) in the MedievalShell, because the only cheat I use is the character reset cheat if im really close to the place I wanna be but then I'm a few millimeters off and have to wait another turn. This has happened to me numerous times and sometimes friendly factions manage to capture a settlement while I'm half a centimeter away from it >:O

There is no way to know the full name of the character in medieval shell(Console box).

But a name like Reynald de Chatllion (French) in console have to be used like:-

Code:

character_reset Reynald de_Chatllion

Another example like for england's King William the Conqueror:-

Code:

character_reset William the_conqueror

Try this and let me know.

William the Conqueror's real name is William. so "character_reset William"

Both of them works as it's a epithet as well.

Epithets aren't a character's name, nor are "king", "prince", and their equivalents. Captain and admiral are part of the names though.

Well I found out, I can't remove trait of people with a name consisting out of more than one part.
A good general (high chivalry, loyalty and medium command) got himself the alcholic trait, wanted to remove it by just giving him the "drink" (social drinker) trait, but it doesn't work. 'character not found'
But when I do "character_reset "bla de_blabla" it works :p

Move the general\character out of a city and use this.

remove_trait this Drink
give_trait this Drink
give_ancillary this deacon (some are faction\religion based)
remove_ancillary this magician_pagan

You got it confused i didn't said that epithets were surnames i was mentioning a special case "the_conqueror" is also a surname in vanilla as well along with an epithet.
