Is there a way to edit the pilot names in the editor or do you have to export the CSV and edit the file manually?

Hey.

I don't get it...is there somewhere an example arround? I already have a .csv with names, generated with the Editor. However I don't get the names into a scenario from 1943...

Hope anybody could show me a tutorial. =)

Thanks so far.

Open the scenario in the Editor - Go to the Comd's Report Air Groups Tab - select 'Pilots' - select 'SHOW LIST' - click 'ADD NAMED PILOTS'

Shout if you need more help or I've missed the point.

hello
sorry for my english
is google ...
and I speak English like a Spanish cow:-)

I have problem to change the name of the pilot.
I can change the property to csv file
once it will import, I close the editor
I open a scenario, the changes are presented.
but when I close the game completely
and restarts it, the changes are gone
it on the save the scenarioo I change

my method:
load editor
load the scenario,
export csv
edit and save
import csv
Close and save the script

on generic data
the csv export
modify and save
import the csv
and save generic dat pilot_name

thank you for taking the time to decipher my English

Are you changing the generic data first?

yes

I noticed
in the "full list" appears modification
and the "show list" name change does not appear
for the test I took a pilot name
and have him add a digit

Once you change the CSV you need to reload the amended pilot list using the ADD NAMED PILOTS function to get them into the scenario.
