For in game, when you have a user with an inappropriate name, could someone create a mod that will allow the ADMIN to change a users name while they are in the game? This would be good for when you have users with inappropriate or offensive names. I have found automatic name changers, but not one that an admin can control on the fly.

Thanks

Isn't that feature already in SourceMod?

Did not see that command before, I did try that, but it says it worked, but it did not (in Insurgency).

I renamed myself Example from user1 to user2

rename user1 user2

it said user 1 renamed to user2

When looking at the users list it still shows as user 1 and no reference to user2.

Try with quotes and see if that fixes it.

sm_rename "user 1" "user 2"

I believe it doesn't work since names are picked from Steam, not game itself.

It seems if that is the case, that SM command is pretty much useless on all steam games. Thanks for the note on that... Just have to kick or ban the names listed accordingly then... Was going to do it the nice way.

sm_rename works just fine on TF2, and should work on pretty much any other game that SM supports.

Note that the command is "sm_rename" and not just "rename"

I wish it worked in Insurgency! Oh well.. that is the way it goes.

It doesn't work in CSGO. When you pass it, client changes name and then it immediately reverts back.

F.e.: You rename client "1" to "2", and in the same second he's "1" again.

If you can't setclientinfo to change the name, perhaps it's stored somewhere else. Have you tried messing with the player resource?
