Alternate finishers, hometowns and weight

[rey619]

Are the some way (through one of the plugins) to give wrestlers different finishers, or just different finisher names, according to which circuit they are in?

Examples:

Awesome Kong's finisher is The Awesome Bomb in TNA, but The Amazing Bomb in Shimmer (change of name, same move)
Alissa Flash' finisher is the Green Fall in TNA, but The Kudo Driver in Shimmer (different move).

Also, could you have hometowns or weight be specific?

Again, Awesome Kong's weight in TNA, which is.. I don't remember, but it's not the same as in Shimmer, where it's "Non of you damn business".

Or is the best solution to have duplicates and use the Awesome Kong export in TNA, and the Amazing Kong export in Shimmer?

I believe there is no way to do this (yet anyway) other than a duplicate version of the wrestler in the database.

None of these are possible.

Different weight for each circuit seems exceptionally rare situation. In Kong's case it's not really even possible because weight has to be a number; you can't change it in TNM to be "none of your damn business".

As for same finishing move having different names, this could be resolved the same way Circuits allow a wrestler to have different names, nickname, push, managers, and face/heel alignment that are circuit specific. I think this has been requested before too and as far as new features would probably be fairly simple to implement if Oliver ever does another update.

Totally different finishers in different circuits is more problematic. Usually this change is more permanent I'd think and neccesitates a seperate export. How often does a wrestler switch circuits and change only their finisher to a totally different move? Usually I'd think their name and nickname/gimmick would get a change too.

A workaround with a single export could be like this: have Flash use the Green Fall as her finisher and a the Kudo Driver as her alternate finisher ("Finisher Like Move"? I forget at the moment and don't have TNM handy). Then if you always book her matches you can always have her win moves with one or the other. (If you let TNM deciede you're probably screwed.) I don't think there really is another work around without multiple exports because the finisher simply has too much info attached to it.

Good call on the weight variable. I wasn't aware that you had to have an integer, but it makes sense (due to moves being limited to weight, and so on).

In Flash's case she couldn't use the Kudo Driver because another TNA wrestler had the same move as finisher (Homicide's Gringo Killer). I think having duplicate exports for both Kong and Flash/Melissa would be the best solution.
