   Intel nicknames

   • Nickname column provides a free-text box with suggestions for unassigned alliance members.
   • Nicknames are stored centrally for your alliance and follow intel edit and visible-field permissions.
   • Nickname labels do not change actual alliance membership or planet assignments.
   • Users can set their public game username beneath Planet display name; login credentials are unchanged.
   • Galaxy Browser Intel overlay mirrors alliance intel nickname, alliance, relation and scan columns in display-only mode.
   • Apply to order # assigns the chosen factories to the active ship order without resetting progress or changing queued orders.

   // Apply factories to the active ship order
   applyFactoriesToOrder(state.production.orderNumber);

   // Alliance-private nickname for a coordinate
   state.alliance.intelRecords[coords]?.nickname;
   
   // Read-only intel columns in Galaxy Browser
   renderGalaxyIntelOverlay();
