What about renaming Train Stations / Labs ?

[Okami]

Sure, its cool. You never know what you get, and the reference to forum users here is nice

But often i get so long names, or just plain ugly ones So i keep replacing trains stations till get better names. Why not just make them editable ?

I support his idea, the reference to the forum users is nice and all, but it should be optional to train stations, it's hard to keep track of what station is your unloading bay, it would be better if you could simply rename the station"Base" or "Unloading 01" something more deductive than complex, random names.
I always finding myself going back to base by foot just to read the name of my home station and then go back to the train to program it correctly.

As to finding out what a station is called, the names are displayed on the minimap too. Although sometimes impossible to read if too many stops are close one by another.

As to renaming, I'd really appreciate if such a thing were possible.

Or maybe less so renaming the station itself, than giving it a second description string.
ex: station name is "holy fire"
station description is "iron miner 01"
total string would be "holy fire - iron miner 01"

Or possibly an option to toggle between the name and the description of a station when assigning the routes for the trains.

As of now, using a pen and a piece of paper works, but it's a bit of hassle when you have many stations later on and need to rework current train schedules to accomodate new stops and remove old, empty ones.

Devs already stated, that this is on their to do list (albeit long one)

[filippe999]

where's their to-do list?

In their heads.

[Tenebrous]

That's the best kind of to-do list

where's their to-do list?

In their heads.

Is it an ordered list, with bullets? If not, I can change that very easily.
