So I've been thinking of what IProfile.Name does. "Profile ID" exists when opening profiles, so maybe it gets the Profile ID, but when I set the profile ID b y editing the profileinfo itself and try to get it using IProfile.Name, I get absolutely nothing.
Edit: It actually gets the Player name, not the Profile ID. So what's the point in having it if there's IPlayer.Name?

IProfile.Name is binded to IPlayer.Name to allow a complete player respawn, you can keep, for instance, bots names, for future re-instancing.Ol1vver wrote: ↑Tue Aug 27, 2019 4:35 pmSo I've been thinking of what IProfile.Name does.

Profile ID was the result of a leftover feature for bot names, as Gurt said some time ago:

It's more of a left over right now as we remade how you name bots. In the release version of the game you will be able to change the name of a bot through the ScriptAPI as well.
