Topic: Separate name lists for ports and warehouses.

A suggestion that I've wanted to make for a while: It would be nice if you could create separate lists of names for ports, warehouses and headquarters.

The idea came to me, once again, for my European tribe. I have a pretty long list of names of European cities. However, there are inland cities like Munich or Prague and there are port cities like Rotterdam or Hamburg. The current random algorithm doesn't take this into account and also gives my ports the names of the inland cities, while warehouses somewhere in the middle of the map were named after port cities.

If we also could separate the headquarters, I would give them the names of the capitals like London, Paris or Berlin.

Technically, we can solve it for the other tribes in such a way that if no explicit name list for ports or headquarters is created in the units.lua, the normal warehouse list is simply used for the names.
