Scenario Name Module (bis_fnc_moduleMissionName) draws Author from wrong variable
New, NormalPublic

Description

When using the Scenario Name Module, I encountered an issue where it was displaying my scenario name twice, in the format of '[ScenarioNameHere] by [ScenarioNameHere].'

After a bit of digging through the code, found under "configFile > A3_Modules_F_Curator > <All>", or "a3\modules_f_curator\intel\functions\fn_moduleMissionName.sqf," I've found that the both the Scenario Name and Author Name are drawn from the onLoadName variable, used for the Title Text shown when a mission is loading, as you can see here;

//For the Scenario Name
if (_name == "") then {_name = gettext (missionconfigfile >> "onLoadName");};

// and for the Author Name
_author = gettext (missionconfigfile >> "onLoadName");
