I just made my own, it's a mixture of planets from Sci-Fi games/movies/books and random dribble.

Friend of mine did that.  Lot of science fiction names, from pretty much every sci-fi book or show he'd ever read/watched.

I'm trying to get my friends into AI War. The moment I mentioned the altplanetnames.txt thing, a friend of mine wrote down every planet from Star Wars down for reference. ...I need to convince her to add the Death Star as a "planet name" though.

Nah, just use that to rename the Avenger and/or Mothership ;)

Frankly, the best planet name from my altname list is Hiigara. Sometimes it just ends up so appropriate.

I should add that one, as well as Star Wars and Mass Effect planets. Maybe some more Greek City-States too.

Any other Sci-Fi series that have good planets you guys can recommend?
I can already tell this is going to be a roller coaster ride of disappointment.

Ohh, yes, she could rename the ships in the language files! My vote goes to Avenger. I'll have to let her know.
...Or maybe I can sneak on her computer and give the Happy Fun Ball its righteous name.
