Spacemanspark Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 Simply put, as the title reads. Why? Simple. IPCs. Some of us have numbers in our names (Spark 5.5, for example), and the random name generator for IPCs has numbers right in it. Anybody making dumb names for other races can be dealt with just as any other badly named character.

Farya Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 Well, considering its a future even organic characters may have numbers in names. Like plasmamen being named after isotopes. Or character may simply be a mass produced clone and have number instead of second name. Or still have or gain first and second names but keep number as callsign.

Shadeykins Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 Personally opposed unless it's restricted to only be available to IPC characters. It's just going to introduce naming headaches for every other race.

Spacemanspark Posted February 2, 2017 Author Posted February 2, 2017 Thanks. That said, there is a rather obnoxious bug with it.

Shadeykins Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 IT'S ALREADY A THING READ THE SECOND POST REEEEEEEEEEEEE I refuse to use GitHub comments, which are effectively just an even more shuttered view of community opinion. Hence why my thoughts on the matter are going here.

KasparoVv Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 Loading said number-names if saved to SQL is still busted, however, in the exact same manner that that one PR you linked that got merged in September fixed. I've a PR up that fixes the SQL bit now, and I'm documenting it here just in case people see it on the GitHub and get curious Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/9279-remove-the-number-restriction-on-character-names/#findComment-78644 Share on other sites More sharing options...
