    I was thinking that it might be a good addition to allow players to name their rail dockers. It would work in a similar way to how we can name inner ship remotes. This way you knew if you were firing the right docker from your hot bar or not.

    Should be a simple Quality Of Life improvement.

    I wish we could label everything the same way we do with in ship remote.
    Useful for different weapon/effect combos and just for fun.

    We already have display modules which schema could use to name adjacent blocks.
    [named]BlockType => "[xyz]±XXX±YYY±ZZZ"

    Renaming anything via a linked or adjacent display block is a great idea. I'd recommend creating a whole new suggestion thread for this, and see how it flies.

    It may also be used to make linking to storage easier? Instead of "floating" between the two in build mode, a "link dock a to this storage" menu option in the storage would make life so much easier, especially on larger ships or stations.
