Since 1.3 custom empires no longer spawn with correct names on static galaxies. Unfortunately there is only one method I know of to fix this, and that's to dig into the code. Luckily, it's not too complicated and you can do it too! I believe in you.

There are two things you need:

• To add the naming convention in the code
  
• To flag your Empire so it gets connected with the code
  
  Step 1. First, go to the mod folder and find the file SWGD_empire_names in common\random_names.
  
  Now simply add in the following code with the information you want.
  
  empire_name_format = { random_weight = { factor = 0 modifier = { add = 10000 has_country_flag = jedi_council } } format = "Jedi Council" noun = "Jedi" }
  
  Step 2. Once the above is completed go to user_empire_designs and insert this the flag code in your empire's code.
  
  Example:
  
  government="military_republic" flags={ jedi_council } ftl=hyperdrive
