How to rename PLANETOID 1?
These small planetoids are quite useful if you attach them to a colony and they don't interfere with the global map, and on the radar, since they are not visible there. But they have standard names, sometimes they are the same, which cannot be changed. And this is not convenient for moving drones.

How about an option to assimilate names of all planetoids (marked) permanently attached to the space station under the space station name.

Simplifies the map display of all your stuff.

The station name can be changed.

Are you suggesting that we simply abandon docked small planetoids? But that's not an option. I like burying communications underground, but it's impossible to move dirt onto the station.
I have the easiest planetoids to terraform (bowl shaped) attached to the sides of my space platform and temporarily attach most planetoids to get the resources I want (gold, mercury, titanium, etc.) then discard the planetoid.

Most gas source planetoids are stripped of resources including gas then discarded.

Have a 32 gas source planetoid which I intend to power with a fusion reactor.

My objective is to accrue resources so that I can create whatever I want.

Current game play is about learning about the game then documenting what I've learned.

I'm talking about those little unnamed planetoids (actually their name is Planetoid 1) that sometimes appear near the bigger ones, and also near the player at the start of the game. Their name is visible when you hover over them and when assigning migrations, but they are not on the map (and that's good!), which means they cannot be renamed.

Thus, if we collect several such planetoids docked to the station, we will get a coincidence of names.
