Summary0000372: Allow surfaces to have non-numerical names
DescriptionI fully expect this to not be possible, but on the tiny chance that it is, I'll ask anyways.
One of the biggest problems I run into when making complicated shells is trying to pick good number ranges for my surfaces. I often end up with numbers that are 6 or 7 digits long so that I can keep everything sorted. If it were possible to name them with letters and underscores, as I do with my image files, I could avoid that trouble altogether and have more easily understood surfaces.
This isn't the same as surface alias; I'm combining elements in surfaces to use as parts for animations and dressups, mostly.

Alternatively, if it were possible to specify a file path directly in an animation instead of having to define it as a separate surface, I could mostly avoid this issue...

Have you tried http://ssp.shillest.net/ukadoc/manual/descript_shell_surfaces.html#introduction_surface.aliasbrace ?
With this you can theoretically change your surface id at any update without changing the statements in ghost

I am aware of surface alias, but it does not help my problem. I have so many surfaces for so many dressup parts and animations, and they are called in so many places in surfaces.txt. I can give the image files themselves names, but I always have to assign everything a number somewhere along the line, and it gets overwhelming quickly. I spend a lot of time planning out number ranges so that nothing will overlap, and I still always end up going wrong somewhere haha.

I need to make my shells less complicated...

I need special syntax to distinguish "named" surface definition from erroneous definitions, because I want to minimize compatibility problems.
For example : names should start 2 underscore, and can use only a-z,0-9 : surface__foo2bar

Not the original reporter
I think two underscores is a bit ugly to start with, hmm, how about starting with # or a space? Like "surface#foo2bar" or "surface foo2bar"
By the way I don't quite understand what you mean by compatibility problems, any specific examples that people can help think about it?

Special syntax would be fine with me. Any chance we could also use . or _ in the names? So names can be things like Surprised.Hoodie.Red, or Surprised_Hoodie_Red. This would help a lot with readability.
