Adding more than 4 prefered names?

[Plasmatic]

So with the preferred names list in options it has 4 slots..

But I noticed a XML file in the main folder called "Prefs" which contains

Code Select Expand

  <preferredNames>
    <li>Salt</li>
    <li>Plasmatic</li>
    <li>Aluanna</li>
    <li>Evanescence</li>
  </preferredNames>

So I'm curious if we could potentially add as many preferred names as well want via the XML?

As a side note, it might be better if we get an option with the names to specify male or female.. some names clearly work better for one gender than the other..

In truth, I don't know. I suspect it'd get wiped as soon as the game rewrote the file.

Also, preferred names is just a way of pointing at names already in the game (from name-in-game+ tiers). The names already have genders attached. It's not a way to put arbitrary new names into the game.

Ah, so that is why I am not seeing my names in games.. it is not adding new names, it's just moving existing names to the top of the list so to speak..

That makes more sense
