so is there a function on triggers that can output a players name and maybe change it? i guess the answer is no, in wc3 it was possible, i thought in sc2 it would be possible as well, maybe do a galaxy script? but im not sure how it works very well
the name is available through triggers as text, not string. conversion from text to string is not possible. you cannot change the name as you could do in wc3 but you can simulate it. tells us what exactly you want to achieve? (change name in chat? world tooltip?)
3 things:
1) change name that appears when u hover mouse over unit to the one that i want
2) change name chat
3) use player name and make it hover ALWAYS over a unit, not the one thats already implemented that u hover the mouse over a unit and u may know, i think ill turn that off and make their name hover over their unit (i think for this one ill imvestigate more about getting a players name through triggers and output it, is it possible to do this one?)

There's a simple UI xml script to get a players name always over a unit. Just have to do a little searching.
@JacktheArcher: Go
U mean galaxy script and edit the raw data?
@MaskedImposter: Go
Yeah like mafia, i thought the same thing
there is a simple GUi trigger action to get the name of a player as TEXT.
