How do I go about naming the actors in the Single Player Maps on Radiant? Like if you aim at Sgt Moody it'll say "SGT Moody -- Submachine gunner"

add the key script_friendlyname and the value SGT Moody -- Submachine gunner that wy, in your map, that actor will be called 'SGT Moody -- Submachine gunner' when you hover over it.

What do you mean by "it Doesn't work"? Does the name just not show up or does it give you any error messages?

Rasta's right.You just put script_friendname as the key and your character's name as the value.The Submachine Gunner part is taken care of by the script already.You dont need add anything else,but just the characters name. KEY:script_friendname VALUE:Sgt. Moody and thats it.

Quote: KEY:script_friendname VALUE:Sgt. Moody i would put quote marks around the value, 'cause 1. its a string 2. it contains spaces 3. it contains non-alphanumerics (.) if they appear in-game, fix it via script
