If you try to use the "rename hero" command (or, rather, the underlying "rename
hero by slot" command) when the hero in question is not in the party (active or
reserve), the program will terminate with an "Out of Bounds" error.

This issue can be resolved in two ways: Fixing game.exe or kludging plotscr.hsd.
The kludge involves rewriting the "rename hero" script in plotscr.hsd:

script,renamehero,who,begin #old version
  renameherobyslot(findhero(who))
end

To ->

script,renamehero,who,begin #new version
  if(find hero(who)>>-1) then (renameherobyslot(findhero(who)))
end

Or even

script,renamehero,who,begin
  if(find hero(who)>>-1) then (renameherobyslot(findhero(who)),return (true))
else (return(false))
end
