The thread about the description field made me realize how little craft names matter to me (let alone descriptions, I don't think I've ever used that field). I have long since run out of ideas for what to call a light-ish Mun lander or a medium spaceplane that can make orbit; filling in the name field is sometimes the hardest part of a design.
For those of us with this problem, I propose:
Add a roll-the-dice button next to the name field, a familiar idiom from RPGs with character creation
When clicked, generate a random name for the craft in the form <adjective> <noun> <Roman numeral between I and L> from a lexicon of aerospacey names. If the name already exists in the save's Ships folder, generate a new one (and so on).
This would add variety and roleplay investment for those of us who are not naturally creative with names, as well as a bit of humor and unique style if the words in the lexicon are fun (and/or moddable??). Since clicking the button is optional, it ought not inconvenience players who enjoy crafting their own names, and since it's just a dice icon, it shouldn't take up too much screen space.
If there's a mod for this, I'll happily install it. Anyone else?
