hell yeah

I don't think this mod is working anymore. I'm getting duplicate system names on giant galaxy maps.

First time I load this mod, my home system, by pure coincidence, winds up with my actual IRL name. I thought it was supreme data-scraping cleverness but it seems to have just been random chance. 10/10.

Thank you for checking Kenji.

Hello ! Thanks for your work, do you know if an update will be available in order to not disabling achievements ?

I have tested that certain visual mods do not turn off achievements, but this one does.

I have also noticed that inside the loading list, this mod is listed as gameplay, and there is a significant reduction in special planet appearances in games after turning on this mod.

I like the idea of this mod, but I'm afraid it may disuade some achievement hunters until it allows achievements while being used.

@//SlipperyPete - I used the following sources for star names..

@kenji
Yes, I think -any- mod unfortunately turns off achievements. There was talk of visual-only mods not doing that, but I'm not sure what has to be done for that to work properly.

Do you know if this mod turns off achievements?

Out of curiosity, are they "lore-friendly" names of stars?

I like this.

Really cool, thank you.

@weirdprism - I'm not sure, honestly. I think all players have to have the same mods installed / loaded for everything to work correctly.
It looks like the creator of the game picks the mods they want and then starts the game - when you go to join game, there is a column that says 'mod status' or something similar. Other users can then enable the same mods and join your game.
Note that any achievements are disabled when any mods are loaded.

I have a question about this mod.
I frequently host games with me and a friend of mine.
If I install this mod, will my friend see the new star names?

Such a mod contribution was missing here. Good work!

Big thanks to [TG]Gobnil for his work on Super Probe Vision - it helped immensely with testing.
