Title: Groupnames in multiplayer-setup
Post by: Softegg on 15 Jul 2003, 10:50:23

in multiplayer-setup, the different groups have names like 'group alpha black' or 'group alpha blue'.

is it possible to have these names changed at this point?

i created a group of west-players, the leader got a init-sequence like this: 'group this setgroupid ["Charlie","GroupColor7"]', but the text at the multiplayer-setup wasn't changed.

The group names in multiplayer setup can't be changed afaik.  At setup, the server is just reading description.ext and mission.sqm.  It skims through mission.sqm and gets the name of the mission, required addons, and playable soldiers (although it doesn't process the "init" info yet).  So setup occurs before you can do anything.
