thinking about automatic renaming sequence, maybe
"[base] - [ship class] [ship type] [ship ID]"
ie
"my fav M1 - M3 mamba NV-93"
"my fav M1 - M3 mamba YU-45"
"my fav M1 - M4 asp HU-54"
"my fav M1 - M4 asp HU-55"

or "[base] - [ship class] [ship type] [number]"
ie
"my fav M1 - M3 mamba 1"
"my fav M1 - M3 mamba 2"
"my fav M1 - M4 asp 1"
"my fav M1 - M4 asp 2"

for traders assigned to some factory, i got the idea of something like that :
"base - [ware traded] [selling or buying] [ship ID or number]"
ie "my complex - PAC sell YV-43"
or "my complex - CAG YV-43" for those who have Lucike's CAG

but i've got a problem here : can't find how to get what ware a trader is actually ... trading :/
to get the job he's doing i see how to do so (finding what command he's running) but for the ware.. still no clue.
I might use some input here.

Any comments / ideas appreciated

PS : yes i already know about Ship Names Manager script, but, i don't like how it actually manages to rename ships, also dislikes the fact that renamed ships kinda bug (if it gets destroyed, you'll get a blank message in your log)

EDIT : idea "en pause", might not go that path, there's a lot of auto renaming scripts yet

Hey Seedee, nice work with the homebase script... but this "auto-rename" thing would be a pearl! It's a great idea! Do you plan to develop it?

If anybody has a copy of this script could it be posted to the Xuniverse area??
It made M7 and larger class ships easy to have a homebase.

A workaround is to:
- assign your capital ship to a wing
- set a home base for the wing
- Optional: remove the capital ship from the wing
