@@RANDOMNAME_REVERSED@@: Like @@RANDOMNAME@@, but with all letters in reverse order. Capitalization is changed to be on the left of each name.
@@RANDOMMALENAME@@ and @@RANDOMFEMALENAME@@: gender-specific randomized names.
@@RANDOMFIRSTNAME@@: a randomized first name by itself.
@@RANDOMLASTNAME@@: a randomized last name by itself.
@@HE@@/@@HIS@@/@@HIM@@/@@MAN@@: Displays "he", "his", "him", or "man" if the name it targets is male, and "she", "her", "hers"*, or "woman" if female.
IMPORTANT NOTE: You may now use @@HE/HIS/HIM@@ for any person, as well as called a person's randomname again. There is no standard set of macro for this, as of yet, so an example would be as follows:
Option 1: Before @@HE_1@@ spoke, @@RANDOMNAME_1@@ took a pen from your secretary, @@RANDOMNAME_2@@. [...]
Option 2: @@RANDOMNAME_2@@, who caught @@RANDOMNAME_1@@ stealing @@HIS_2@@ pen off from @@HIS_2@@ desk and placing it into @@HIS_1@@ pantaloons, [...]
Note: Don't go too crazy. You don't want to get too ambiguous - though, from what I hear, editors love ambiguity more than most people.
@@MAJORINDUSTRY@@: Your nation's biggest industry. Possibilities are:
Industries: Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Furniture Restoration, Gambling, Information Technology, Pizza Delivery, Retail, Soda Sales, Tourism, Trout Farming, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports.
Also, some options have varients or are not available to certain nations. Here's a quick legend to help you out:
[TEXT] appears at the end of some options, and states the validity:
- [Red text] means something is banned, mandatory, or more authoritarian.
- [Blue text] indicates something is legal and/or freer.
- [Purple text] is for relatively neutral standpoints, like whether you have a military, a capital, a faith, or are a matriarchy/patriarchy.
* before a number indicates two or more options are variants. Multiple *s indicate different sets (i.e. * does not go with **)
[Number] indicates that the option has no variant, but still is not available for all nations who get the issue.
