Title: A strange stringtable happening
Post by: klavan on 30 May 2005, 20:51:08

In the mision I'm currently alpha testing I'm making an extended use of the .csv file. Generally all runs OK, apart for one thing: I've assigned custom names to various groups using the following example line:

"STR_CFG_GRPNAMES_ALPHA","Shepherd One","Pastore Uno"

All seem to work well, but if I exit the game during the play and then I reload the mission the groups name appear as the original ones: alpha, bravo, charlie, etc instead of Shepherd One, Sheperd Two, Sheperd Three, etc.
Is this another OFP bug? All the other strings continue to works fine except these ones....  ???
Any idea? Thanks.

Err.... I didn't know that you ever could change the group names by adding a stringtable entry. So the "bug" might be that it works at all...

It's not finished: i've noticed that if i re-exit the game and then i reload it again after the "strange happening" occoured, the name of the groups return to be as they should be (Sheperd One, etc....).
Boh????
