Malfador, how about the ability to rename a system
Is there any way to rename a system in the game? Or is it possible to mod this ability in like you can rename planets?

Re: Malfador, how about the ability to rename a system
You Probalby know this, but you can put desired names in this file. Granted it is still not controled by you.
SystemNames.txt
It would be nice to be able to rename them.
I wonder what will happen if I change the names in the file after a game is started? RCE? Nothing, The name changes in my games.
I'll find out tonight and let you know.

Re: Malfador, how about the ability to rename a system
Being able to rename systems as you discover them would be nice, yes. But it would be MUCH nicer to be able to set the name of your home system in your AI files for a given empire. Shouldn't empires be able to name their home systems?  |

SystemNames.txt is only referenced when a map is generated; changes only affect new maps created after the change.

Re: Malfador, how about the ability to rename a system
I agree with Baron M. that your home system should be named after your empire.
However...if you are playing a multiplayer game and keep renaming different systems than it might be a source of confusion for other players.
