Why cant we rename launch pads on planets?

How hard it is to code “rename” option for launch pads to make PI less of a, god damn, chore?

I will not even say “please”, this is basic of basic things in any game.
And we are paying for it.
So fix it.
Thank you.

Would be a nice change.

In the meantime I set up my routes on factory planets so that the random launch pad names in alphabetical order match the alphabetical order of input materials. That way I only have to think once when setting up the planet, and after that it’s as easy as dropping the top material in the top lauchpad, second material in the second launchpad etc.

Has this never been officially asked for in the ten plus years of PI…?

Been asked so many times… along with grids.

I did not even noticed this is a problem until I started to do PI more “hands-on” way.

PI in general is made in such an old school way that even my grand dad is looking at it and says: “Yeah, we had that back in the good old days of gaming”…

Damn, and nobody look into it?
Well, maybe it is true what they say about devs not knowing how this game is programmed…

Maybe, just maybe if renaming was paid with plex we stood a chance of getting this feature. As is, no one will touch it.

You already got templates isn’t that enough? When will you stop asking for features and fixes?

-Someone at CCP probably

Its a mildly dysfunctional company. When you look at their About Page they explain they are into virtual reality and try to hype it up. Probably something that was written 10 years ago.
