Default Re: Any more bug reports?

Wish: auto-rename ships after a retrofit.
Example: Lets say I have a fleet with 20 warships of class "Challenger". I get new tech and upgrade the design to "Challenger II" , then retrofit all ships. Now I have to go and manually rename every ship from "Challenger 0001" to "Challenger II 0001" etc. Very mind numbing.
I rarely bother to rename ships. It's not unusual for me to end up with things like a fleet containing Dire Wolf 0001, Dire Wolf II 0001, Dire Wolf IVa 0003, Dire Wolf VIc 0002, etc., with all of them actually retrofitted to Dire Wolf VIII class. About the only time I rename them is when a retrofit causes the name sequence to repeat and give me two ships with identical names.

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu"
