Understand "something else" as the player

Hey all-

I’d like to have the player be able to use another name for the PC besides “me” or “self.” But this line doesn’t work:

Understand "prince" as the player.

and I can’t find anything about this in the documentation. Any ideas?

Player is really a variable, not a specific object. The default player object is called yourself, so you can do this:

Understand "prince" as yourself.
