Currently you need to use expressions to choose he or she based on gender or use alt desc restrictions. But it would be much quicker if you could just use eg:
%character%.Gender closed the door

Output as "He closed the door"

Or Perhaps create a new built-in Property 'GenderRef' for this if Gender needs to he Male or Female for the properties. I could do this manually with custom properties just would be easier for all projects if it was already build in. I know i can add the custom one to the library but just saying.

The name function automatically replaces the character's name with the gender correct "He/she/it" pronoun if it is used multiple times, but you can force it to use the pronoun using:
%character%.Name(Force)

Thanks saabie, i didn't know about modifier command (force) good to know. I dont know whether to delete this suggestion thread or leave it for others who might not know about that method and come across your reply here.
