Eras, can we add a new designation?

When in multiplayer, SWBF detects what era is being played by the last letter in the map lua file.

For example, for the script bes2a, the "a" refers to "Galactic Civil War" and this is what is displayed in the
era box on the multiplayer game menu.


If the last letter is something else, it just displays the last letter.  For example, when I hosted nab2_h, it had "h" in the era box on the multiplayer game menu.


Does anyone know if we can customize this?  I would like to have all the new map luas have an "x" at the end, and display "SWBFgamers.com Update" in the era box.

Don't believe everything you read on the internet

I have theory and I might be able to. No promises.

I suspect it is where ever the localization is done, and i think it may be in different languages.

My theory did not work sorry. :( It is done via LUA in shell.lvl I know how to do it.(I thinki.) but I would need ifs_mp_sessionlist.lua to do it.

well, maybe Bamdur can work his script magic  ;)
