On the questnet server, you must choose your name before you actually get into the game? Is there a way to overide that? I would want the player/characters to be able to choose their name within the game instead of before they actually enter; that was the original idea anyway.
Just curious,

i believe you can actualy do that. im not sure how this works when using questnet, but i think you use a string variable, and each time a description said you name, you would put #playername# so, no matter what name the player chose at the beginning, it would say it by using string variables. im not sure how you are able to choose your name at the beginning, but ill try and find it for you :)
on questnet you might have to use the string variable and put something like $name(%userid%)$ in the descriptions. :)
