Title: Set commander name lists per military academy
Post by: 1tallboi on June 08, 2025, 09:20:19 PM

As it says on the tin

When you have a military academy produce a new commander, that colony is that commander's "homeworld." As such, I'd like to see the ability to set name lists per military academy. This'll enable a few things:

1. Military Academies you conquer from NPRs would preserve the original race's namelists (however, as-is this can be roleplayed away by non-human names being utterly unpronounceable by humans, therefore necessitating "humanized" names)

2. You can roleplay individual colonies being populated by different Earth ethnicities. For example, my military academy on the colony Chamanvati would take from South Asian themed namelists, New Cascadia would take from the United States namelist, all the while Earth will maintain more diverse namelists

More RP potential with this one.
Great idea!

Sounds like an interesting idea. Do you imagine this as the namelist being randomly selected when it's queued/completes, something the user selects upon queuing it/finishing construction of the installation, or something the user adjusts manually afterwards from the empire/nation-wide namelist?
