allow_rename

[caldas]

searching for the forum, i found this script but it seems that the allow_rename is missing.

can you tell what he does? do you have any?

		playerinit()
{
    self.izno = []; //initialize player-info array
    self checkinitialname(); //fix initial "Unknown Soldier" names
    self.izno["userinfoname"] = self get_userinfo("name"); //keep track of the name as per the user's userinfo
    self thread monitor_namechange();
    self allow_rename(false);
}

checkinitialname()
{
    name = self get_userinfo("name");
    self.izno["realname"] = name;
    result = checkname(name); //checkname returns true if the name is not allowed or a duplicate
    if(result)
    {
        //as i disallow duplicate names, this while() loop tries to find an open JumpersHeavenFan#NUMBER for the player to use
        while(result)
        {
            self.izno["realname"] = "JumpersHeavenFan#" + randomintrange(100, 1000);
            result = self checkname(self.izno["realname"]);
        }
        //now, to keep the userinfo the same to not excessively trigger a clientuserinfochanged event, store the user's name before renaming him
        userinfoname = self get_userinfo("name");

        //this will allow clientuserinfochanged to rename the player
        self allow_rename(true);

        //change the name in the userinfo, then call the clientuserinfochanged function to do the actual renaming
        self set_userinfo("name", self.izno["realname"]);
        self clientuserinfochanged();

        //disallow any future user-started rename events
        self allow_rename(false);

        //restore the original userinfo
        self set_userinfo("name", userinfoname);
    }
    
}

monitor_namechange()
{
    self endon("disconnect");
    while(true)
    {
        name = self get_userinfo("name");

        //if the name in userinfo is different than the one stored serverside, the user changed his /name
        if(name != self.izno["userinfoname"])
        {

            //check if user is allowed to change his name and what his real name should be
            self.izno["realname"] = self namechanged(name);

            //next few lines to the same as the renaming in checkinitialname()
            self set_userinfo("name", self.izno["realname"]);
