Grid Name Protection

This script automatically renames your grid to whatever you set in Custom Data, every few seconds.

This is essential for some multiplayer servers that require your grids to have a name. As most playesr know, when you disconnect merged grids, the disconnected grids may revert to generic names, which can cause them to be deleted by trash cleanup on a multiplayer server if they aren't renamed.

Add this script to all grids you want to protect their names when they are unmerged from a larger grid.

You can add this script to multiple grids, and merge them all together, and for a time, merged grid scripts will battle out over which name the merged grid should have, however upon unmerging the names, all independent grids that have this script will get their grid names back. I haven't figured out how to code for when two scripts exist on a grid, and to pick a priority name. This script is released to the public to help code a solution. In the meantime, this works beautifully so far.

I use this on the Sigma Draconis multiplayer sever.
