Move character and Multi-word named chars
I've been trying to move several characters with several names(ie Blarg dyr Blarg, or Samus whatthefookistan) with no good results, the only time when this has been sucessful is with client kings with single names.
Which is causing problems since Samus Whatthefookistan(or whatever his name is) is getting old and I would like to conquer most of Persia before he dies, but currently he's stuck in Greec.
Also, I've been hoping to move the leaders of inactive countries to do do stuff :(

Hey Olaf, what faction are you playing?
If you look in the export_descr_names file, you'll realise Samus (I assume he's Hai?) is a rather confusing one. Sometimes Samus is a name on its own, and the second name is only a trait title, meaning it's not officially part of his name. Hence Samus Pokr Haykits, for example, could actually just be 'SamusG' for example. Whereas 'Samus Yervanduni' would be 'Samus somethingorother' in the console since that's part of his official name in game.
For Celtic names, it depends on what faction he is. If Arverni, he's 'Blarg arvernimocBlarg'. If Aedui, he's 'Blarg aeduidoeBlarg'. If Casse, he's just plain 'Blarg dyrBlarg'. And everything mentioned above is case-sensitive.
I'm still trying to figure out how to do Sabaean and Sweboz names, I'm only having a 50% success rate with moving those. Usually those with accents or apostrophes kill me. Heh.
Once you figure out how to move them around, coupled with the create_unit command, goodness, you can sure shape the world to your intentions.
...Namses, eh?

Re: Move character and Multi-word named chars
So there is no general guide on how to translate EB character names to the console?
Looking for a good read? Visit the Library!

Yes, Namses, the shortened name for the Haisatargalafaophorosniaradogbarae dyr Namses Empire.
And yes he is Hai.
I tried
move_character Samus 189 209 and it worked, which makes me mad :( lol
Well thanks man, and yes Sabean and Sweboz names suck.

Re: Move character and Multi-word named chars
What's the proper syntax for the move_character command?
I keep getting an error saying the location I want to send them to is an invalid one. That's when I don't get one saying the character doesn't exist...

Re: Move character and Multi-word named chars
Should be just move_character name x,y

Re: Move character and Multi-word named chars
Every time I do that, it says invalid tile.
The show_cursorstat does report them x,y and not y,x, right?
