[Suggestion] Naming Cell Blocks

I am not sure if this is important but it would be neat if you could name areas of your prison

Yeah, like "Cellblock A" or something fucked up like "THE SEVENTH LEVEL OF HELL" would be pretty fun! Even if it would add nothing to the gameplay itself.

A labeling system in general could be useful for planning and managing the prison.

Makes sense to me, prisons have this in real life. Also helps place prisoners where they need to go. Like protective custody (PC) , suicide watch ect...

For example you can have a unit and 3 wings off it. So unit 1 with A B and C wing. Wing A and B is GP (gen pop) wing C is PC.

+1!!
I believe being able to label zones (canteens, cell blocks, yards, etc) would be a huge help in a lot of areas. I would love to have it set up that cell blocks A and B eat at canteen A, use yard A and common room A as an example.
Right now in my prison I need to use a lock up hr in my regime to make sure one canteen does not get overloaded with prisoners leaving their job and hitting the closest canteen.

Would also be useful with multiple kitchens, these 20 cooks are set to kitchen A and canteen A, so many things I can.. makes me a little giddy thinking how useful it would be!

Having CellBlockA have lunch at 1, while CellBlockB has lunch at 2, makes for a more efficient use of your kitchen / canteen, without needing to have different security levels.
Not to mention that CellBlockA could do the washing, while CellBlockB does the cleaning and CellBlockC does the workshop

Having a regime per cellblock.. sigh..

+1 That would be useful and fun. Adds flexibility to possible prison designs.
