Thread: That is a reserved name??
Message Edited by Staveeno on 07-21-2005 07:37 PM
I believe the same filter that applies to naming vendors applies to RE'ing. This is believe the game is a global game. An example is the word "Counter", a perfectly normal word in English, but when Converted to another language (not saying which one), it turns into a "not appropriate" word.
That being said, I find the biggest problem with RE'ing and Reserved limitation is quotes: "Double" quotes are Reserved, though 'Single' quotes are not and work fine.
Hope this helps.
Doh, didn't see your examples that were denyed, sorry.
Try: Level V
I believe numbers are all reserved (1, 2, 3, ext..)

It always retains the "look" of the first component you put in the RE tool, only see it for weapons tho (and engines on some ships).
There's a post around listing all names and all weapon skins, very nice ![]()

Yeah, I can confirm that. No numbers in ship names or RE parts, only in crafted parts. Use Roman numerals.
lol..I never thought of using Roman numerals. Thanks for that tip.
I have to disagree, Nick.
MSW on Ahazi (Queen Anne Shipworks) and my standard RE tag includes numbers.
"QA L8 Gun", "QA L5 Reactor", etc. I recently had to drop my "QA" tag on one item, but it still allowed me to put a number in the new name.

What is the deal with this?Reverse Engineerparts and name them, I get stuck in this endless loop of how I can't name my object no matter what, just says that it is a reserved name.
I have some level 5 armor for example. Which has prompted me to write this post. I've tried to following names, and all say it is a reserved name:
Staveeno Level5 Armor
Staveeno Level5 Composite
Staveeno L5 Composite
L5 Composite
L5 Composite Armor
Nothing seems to work, what am I doing wrong?

you cannot use the numbers 0-9, that is what's causing the problem, however roman numerals may be used
If I had half a brain.... I'd still only have half a brain.:smileysurprised
OH!
You were correct. No numbers in names. That's what I get for posting while sleep deprived.
