You mean  "DELTA four black (Lundstrom)" ? (or something)

You could play around with format.
I.e.,

Code: [Select]

_badname = "DELTA four BLACK (Lundstrom)"
_thisone = format ["%1", playerUnit]
if (_badname == _thisone) then { dostuff }

Of course, it wouldnt be much use for anyone playing the missing and not being named Lundstrom.

Try

? name player == "whatever" : goto "rename"

If it doesn't work play with the syntax a little.
