Extensions: Feature Request

(Pando) customizable name for the extension-chatbot

Pando is a Twitch extension that allows streamers to adopt a pet.

The pet will respond in chat about new interactions, like followers, subscribers or just a friendly hello to new chatters.

We often receive the request to change the extension-name that is visible in chat. Currently it's Pando (same as the extension name). We would like streamers to change it so it will appears as the pets name.

We know it's a niche feature request but we hope it becomes possible.

    I too think this would be a wonderful modification ... My pet's name is on screen, but Panda is in the chat, and this confuses some viewers ... ;)

  • Doom_Kai commented  ·   ·  Report

    This would be a great help to help clear up any sort of confusion that may take place, I've often had viewers question who the Pando 'user' was when it would message in chat. I've resorted to disabling the chat messages from Pando all together as to avoid further confusion of it so it would be nice if this feature could be implemented into the near future hopefully.

    Rather dumb this needs to be voted on to be thing. Come on twitch, you want us using these extensions then don't let the creators behind them add simple functions?

    soo does that mean i cna finaly name it (Emulsifier 3000) ? if so that would be awesome
  • ValkyrieMir commented  ·   ·  Report

    This would really help a lot and stop confusing people in the chat.

    So... Pretty please?

    A customisable name for our Pet-bot would avoid a lot of confusion to the chat participants! Let's make this change happen :)!

    This is the most asked for improvement in the Pando community! It would help us streamers immensely!
  • IVyN0T commented  ·   ·  Report

    this would be really helpful! it causes a lot of confusion with viewers!!
  • PriestessofWonderland commented  ·   ·  Report

    It would be really nice to be able to change the Pando name because I’ve had some users get confused and think it’s a real person and even had a guest star was offended because he kept typing “zzzz” in chat during an interview!!

    This would be SO awesome! My chatters love to interact with Pando/Audrey 2/Lilith(my virtual foster dog at Rugaz Rescue).

    Having the Exploding Panda (channel point redemption) helps everyone remember the name Pando, but still it can be confusing!

    My users get to pick her name if they get the first cookie (channel point redemption) by being the first to the stream. Being able to Game-ify things like this is great for Twitch engagement, which is good for us all!

    Please allow the Pando extension name to be changed in chat! So the viewers will not get confused about the different pets ingame name and the extension name. Thx so much!
  • potpot_ux commented  ·   ·  Report

    It will reduce the confusion from chat to have the extension name match the customized pet's name. People have really gotten attached to my pet "Mumu".

  • Lady_Arrahneen commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please please please! Please allow the Pando extension name to be changed in chat. This will make things more seamless and make more sense! I want my pet Anna to say "hi", as Anna, not as Pando.

  • BComp13 commented  ·   ·  Report

    This would absolutely be an awesome thing to have!
