Text not displaying as expected when spawning new alien base sites?

[The Martian]

I'm trying to spawn an alien base that is instantly visible to X-Com (Using showAlienBase: true) and that has different siteType: than the regular one.

So far I have been able to make the alien base appear but the text is not displaying what I was expecting on the Geoscape.

For some reason instead of the contents of the string assigned to markerName: it is displaying the string's name itself STR_TEST_MARKER_NAME.



Also, can the message for when this base is discovered by customized without effecting the discovery message for all other alien bases?

Currently it reads "X-Com patrols have located an Alien colony in North Pacific" but that will be confusing if the new site isn't actually an alien colony.

Example:
"Aliens have taken over a factory in _location name_" etc.



I've attached a small example mod to better explain how I'm currently trying to setup the mission spawning.

And here is the code from the mod:
