What's the distinction? In that screenshot, they all have a prefix...Dilvish wrote:One thing to consider is a more significant limitation on how many stars will be named in the grouping fashion versus how many in the individual fashion, right now they're nearly all grouped.
It might be nice if, for names that only appear once, the prefix is left out. That is, if a name from the stringtable list only appears once, it is just that name, with no Alpha prepended.
This would be particularly helpful in galaxies with less than 500 stars, in which there are enough names that most or all systems don't need to have name with reused entries from the list. Instead of 400 "Alpha Whatever", there would be mostly just "Whatever". This would help reduce map name label clutter.
You might need to explain what "genitive form" means, with some other examples... Centauri is OK, but not Pegasus? What would the "genitive form" be for most of the other names in the list?cami wrote:...please note that the grouping expects genitive form of the group's name (like Alpha Centauri for the Centaurus constellation).
