Changing ghost names
I've discovered dead characters can live as ghosts through the "bone" files. However, all of the characters which I created earlier had the same nickname. I'd want to change the ghost names.
a) I mostly just see squares and the ghost name in these bone files. Would I be safe modifying the names using a text editor?
b) Do the ghosts depend on any other file? Because I'm already thinking of cleaning up my folder (read: OCD caprices) and keeping only the ghosts, leaving the already-bulky game folder behind.
c) What is the morgue folder for? EDIT: testing has revealed the "scores" file depends on the related .txt files from the /morgue folder. Editing the "./saves/scores" file to change character names requires one to rename the related morgue files.
d) Is there any risk of incompatibility between the ghost names and the high-score holders doing it in such a manual way (e.g., if names are not the same)?
Thanks in advance! I've searched around but found no (expert) answers on most of these matters.
