A simple question.

A simple question. Is it possible to make the space available for base names larger?
Not the number of bases but the length of the name itself? Thanks.

Most things are theoretically possible, but this would probably be a somewhat tricky one to pull off, so unless there's significant demand for it it's not likely to happen.

Thanks. I was just wondering if there was an easy way to work around the problem I didn't know about.

No; usually, anything that increases the number of possible values data can take will be on the harder side.

* Random quote

I have often been asked: if we have traveled between the stars, why can we not launch the simplest of orbital probes? These fools fail to understand the difficulty of finding the appropriate materials on this Planet, of developing adequate power supplies, and creating the infrastructure necessary to support such an effort. In short, we have struggled under the limitations of a colonial society on a virgin planet. Until now.
