Title: Faction name generator can generate names too long to use
Post by: dshards on June 22, 2018, 11:54:35 PM

When asked to name my faction and community, I accepted the original auto-generated faction and place names and got the error message "That name isn't valid."

The generated names were:

Faction: Misen

Local community: The Black Cockroach Cadorlándue

I thought that the accented character might be the issue, so I tried naming the local community "Cadorlándue", while keeping the faction name "Misen". This was accepted.

The issue might be the name length?

Playing version 0.18.1722

Got this bug too, seems like the problem comes from the name lenght indeed

We should just have the generator regenerate as long as its output is not valid.
