Renaming enemy ships : bug or feature ?

I think it's pretty nice to mark a particularly strong enemy for example but I'm curious as to wether it was intended or not

Yeah, and you can also rename their planets as well. Is that a bug too??

I have a feeling there is a bug there. It's not really that surprising. When you work on a game like this for 2 years, you sort of get a tunnel vision. It may not have occured to anyone to even look and see if you COULD rename enemy planets and systems.

Personally, I hope they fix it, because it kind of bugs me, but it's not a huge, huge deal.

Yeah, ten thousand of customers will come up with far more "why the hell did you even TRY that??" things that the dev team wouldn't.

Work in development or support for more than a week and you find that out all too well.

It is a feature. For those who want to make their own story in sandbox mode, players are free to name any planets or ships as they please.

I love renaming the enemy planets and ships (Especially minor race stars. A star sytem called "Dark Yor?"), to help myself remember what's what and add some flavor.
