How do you change your name?

[Verdant]

I want to change my name in the game and NOT on my Steam profile--I like being able to change it all the time. How can I do this?

It uses your steam name, so right now it's go by TILL for you, Ponky for me etc.

Okay, thats what I thought! Yeah I changed my steam name so it could show up as that in game. Thank you for explaining and answering!

I think there's a thing in the savefile which might do it, from having poked through them / the logs / the player.gd just now. May be misinterpreting though.

Certainly seen someone in a game where they had one name over their head but a different one in chat, apparently they'd changed their Steam name whilst already running the game, so it must have something that's persistent as well as picking it up live. (Never did get confirmation on which was the old and which was the new - possibly the overhead name was the new one as it eventually used that for their logoff message in the chat window?)
