Random Name Selection

About this project

Normally, the names given to the Prince of Cannock and the Princess of Moonbrooke are determined by the name you give to the Prince of Midenhall; if, for example, you always name Midenhall "abw", Cannock will always be named "Artho" and Moonbrooke will always be named "Ollisa".

This patch changes the name selection behaviour to select names for Cannock and Moonbrooke at random using the game's RNG, so now when you name Midenhall "abw", Cannock and Moonbrooke might end up with any of their 8 predefined names.

Includes commented source code!
