Random Guardian Names (RGN)

Description
This was made because I was a little tired of seeing themed names, as seen in the config that engineers the names being Markov selected Greek.

This mod totally randomizes the Vault Guardian names. You may end up with a viable sounding name for the guardian, or it could be total nonsense.

What this does in techy detail is overwrite the config to accept the new naming scheme by using the same exact filepath, much like how a music replacer does it. This new naming scheme, instead of being Greek-based, has a randomized sequence. Each unique name has a 1/8,171,060,768,640 chance of being seen.

A = All letters and ligatures
V = Vowels
C = Consonants

A, V, C, A, C, V, A, C, A

I did cut out a few things from it and added increasingly bigger letter sequences to give it much more variety, and even threw in blanks to diversify the length.

Probably not compatible with anything that replaces "bossnamegen.config." Although this has its priority set to 999.

OH! And don't forget to have fun!

Calculated the chances of a unique name. It's 1/8,171,060,768,640

Could be nonsense, could be sensical, could be plain ridiculous. Shown here are just a few examples.

@Kronolos

You might be looking for "Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis"

Can't help that. A lot of these letters are picked at random using a config. It also happens when it tries to include blanks to shorten the length.

Either way. The preview images are just a few potential combos. I didn't calculate the exact number, but given the amount of letters and ligatures it can choose from, there are possible millions of potential combos.
