Not a scripting issue, but does involve using the AGS Editor. I've recently "completed" my first game, a MAGS entry. When you start up a new game, the screen asks for two names: the first name can be changed, later, but the second name can't be changed. I had to work with my game a while before stumbling onto a good title for it. As a result, I wound up changing the file name that could be changed. I also thought I'd changed the executable file name, but a beta tester, using Avast, had a problem with the executable file name not being the old name. She renamed the exe file to the earlier name, and Avast had no further problem with the file.
The other two folks who took a look at my game had no problems with their antivirus software complaining about the game.
I'd appreciate a little insight into what that unchangeable name is actually doing, or where it is going. Do we need to pay more attention to that second file name?
The second name defines a name for your game's exe file.
This is a not very known fact, but if you want to change it, simply rename whole project folder.
Avast has some problems with AGS games... just search for it, and you'll find plenty to check.

Thanks for the pro-tip, mate. I didn't know that actually. So you mean: rename the project folder and then compile I'm assuming?

Yes, rename project folder, open folder, click game.agf and then compile.
The game Name remains as in general settings so change if required.
