Using the GenericNames class

[silentghoust 132]

Hi, I'm currently developing a ORBAT layout for my mission. I have read the wiki on ORBAT pretty well, and it says that any time you don't want to post a name in yourself, you can just use the CfgWorlds >> Generic name class. However, exactly were do I put this in a ORBAT?

	class Comp1
{
	id = 1;
	idType = 0;
	side = "Resistance";
	size = "Company";
	type = "Infantry";
	commander = "Sparta";
	commanderRank = "Colonel";
	text = "%1, %2, %3";
	textShort = "%1 Company";
	subordinates[] = {Aplat1, Aplat2, Aplat3};
	description = "AAF Company Tasked with keeping the peace on Stratis.";
};

This is just a snippet of my ORBAT, the wiki says you can use the class instead of cammander = "Sparta", do I just delete the cammander part and insert the class? Or do I put the class code within the cammander = part?

Simply write

commander = "NATOMen";

and the game will assign a random name as commander to that unit. However, I've made the experience that you sometimes get the same name two or three times if your ORBAT is big enough. So, if you don't want the same guy being responsible for the fighter squadron, the tank brigade and your 253rd infantry squad you might want to fill these by yourself. ;)
