How does OOTP Determine Facegen If Name is the Same?

We are having a discussion with @Thedonaldsonnetwork & @OOTPPerfectTeam about Negro league P John Donaldson. in my game he comes up as the FG for A's 2b from the 60's. I can not figure out what to rename him. i know NeL Donaldson would be John W. so creating a Fg for him and naming with John W isnt' an issue bu5t how do i get it to connect to him for Perfect Team.?

Perfect team 20 unfortunately only reads facegens in named in the First_Last format. However, OOTP proper can read facegens in First_Last, as well as in the historical minors ID name format (which it gives priority to). So, to avoid this conflict, name the facegen for the Negro League pitcher "John_Donaldson" and the facegen for the A's 2B "donald001joh"

qcbandits has been pushing for an overall move to the historical minors ID naming convention for facegen files whenever possible, and it's doing an absolute ton to avoid these naming conflicts, as those 12 character IDs are unique for every player. With any luck, we'll be able to use that file format for Perfect Team 21, which will clean up naming conflicts, and free the devs from needing to use middle initials and such on card names.

Here's my facegen for the NeL pitcher, John Donaldson, if you're interested:

Does 20 know to read A's 2b with that naming convention? Just checking before i start changing things. My Fg file is probably a bit outdated.

Perfect Team 20 can't read that naming convention, but the rest of OOTP 20 can.
