about ship names

Well, people like Iambecomelife have already made pre-war skins for his ships so they're brightly colored with company names on them, and after the war starts they turn grey. It would be possible to have skins with names on them, but they wouldn't match the names Commander gave after the fact, so it would look cool but wouldn't mean much in the game.

SH5 does seem to have some tricks people are just discovering. I don't own a copy yet but I have been shown a screen of how the names work in that one, and it looks like it may be easy to have names assigned to not only the right countries but even to the right companies.

Unfortunately there are barely any merchants in SH5 so far, so it's not really worth it to look at it yet. But the future may indeed be brighter than we think.
