Name Generator

In the extractor, the "g"-button near the creature's name can be used to automatically create a name for that creature. The idea and first implementations are from @tsebring and @SkyDotNET, thanks for that!

Usage

To use this feature, a naming-pattern has to be defined in the settings. E.g. a pattern like {species_shortu} {sex_short}-{hp} {dmg} could create a name like "ARGT F-38 40" for a female argentavis with 38 levels in HP and 40 levels in damage.

Any characters that don't match a key-word from the list below will not be changed. E.g. a pattern like {species} (Joe's) will create a name that consists of the species and " (Joe's)" appended.

Key-words

• {species}: species
• {species_short}: species shortened to at most 4 characters
• {species_shortu}: like {species_short) and in uppercase
• {spcs_short}: species without vowels and shortened to at most 4 characters
• {spcs_shortu}: like {spcs_short} and in uppercase
• {sex}: sex ("Male", "Female", "Unknown")
• {sex_short}: "M", "F", "U" (unknown)
• {cpr}: {sex_short}{date_short}{hp}{stam}{oxy}{food}{weight}{dmg}{effImp}
• {date_short}: yy-MM-dd, e.g. 2017-04-22
• {date_compressed}: yyMMdd
• {times_short}: hh:mm:ss
• {times_compressed}: hhmmss
• {time_short}: hh:mm
• {time_compressed}: hhmm
• {n}: if the generated name already exists, the smallest number that makes the name unique is added. E.g. if you pattern is {species} {n}, and you have a creatures named "Rex 1" and "Rex 3", the next rex is named "Rex 2".

Breeding-levels

• {hp}: Health
• {stam}: Stamina
• {oxy}: Oxygen
• {food}: Food
• {weight}: Weight
• {dmg}: Damage
• {spd}: Speed
• {trp}: Torpor

Other

• {effImp}: Taming-effectiveness or Imprinting (depending if the creature was bred or tamed)
• {gen}: Number of generations
• {gena}: Number of generations in letters, e.g. generation 0 is 'A', generation 1 is 'B', generation 26 is 'AA' etc.
• {muta}: Number of mutations
• {rnd}: random number 100000 - 999999
• {tn}: number of creatures of the current species in the library + 1
