Hi everyone,
I would like to add a line of code in character_events.txt that would change the name of the target character (or his custom_name). I tried to use the language of the .rome save files :
first_name_loc={
name=""
custom_name=""
}
but it didn't work. Could someone tell me if it is possible and if so, how to do it please ?

P.S. : Does someone know where are located the places where all the line codes make there sense (or take there sense ?). I mean by that, if add_nickname, for example, is understood by the game, where is it explained to it ? in the .exe ? I don't know, I wanted to tinker that too.
