- Description:
- When argument is Object, the command returns the name given to a unit using the setIdentity instruction or selected randomly by the game engine if setIdentity has not been used on the unit. If used on vehicle, name of first crew member (in order commander, driver, gunner). If used on an object, "Error: No unit" is being returned.
- Multiplayer:
- name returns profileName, eventually suffixed by the server in the event of identical names, e.g username/username (2).
