What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
The ability to name chem cases

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
Not that I could find

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
  • People can finally name what's in their chem crates instead of having to pull out 1-2 different ones to figure out which is the anima and which is the amnestics and not me dropping my case of Class-E instead of A when on a CL3 job...
  • You can actually sort by chemicals and increase their use

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
  • Idiots putting minge names, "damn I call this case the sigma gooner box" or some idiocy. If it was restricted to a drop down of chem names, with a max of six I think that'd work, or if the name was based off of the vials inside alike a mixed beaker.

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
I think it should be accepted, there's reasonable restrictions that could be put on, and it could be done with the current system of a microscope if the chem crate is made holdable.

I remember something similar being suggested before for... I think some kind of VCraft inventory items, like individual vials or flasks? Not sure, but my recollection is that it was denied due to a combination of potential technical challenges, and the time to be spent on tackling those technical challenges for something this minor not being particularly necessary. I personally see the need and wouldn't mind it if it weren't a priority. I understand that we need to be sparing as to what is developed as to not fil the backlog with largely unnecessary clutter, but... Ehh. I mean sure, it's minor in the grand scheme of things, but I think it should be okay? I don't know.

That'd be a really good quality of life change. Although, I do wonder how easy it would be to implement, I'm not sure there are any custom named inventory items at the moment?

I'm unsure!

Honestly with GMOD a lot of reliance is left to actually renaming the entity itself so this could be entirely impossible.

However, other remediation's such as visual changes (cases being coloured or the name itself in certain ways) would still be far easier. As my current system is a case with then a flask next to it with an amount of the chemicals inside so I can ID which is which c:
