Asteroid ID

Oct 27, 2020 Bejebajay link
If we charinfo an asteroid, it would be helpful to see an ID on it.. for instance, there's a roid in dau g-11 where its collision hitbox is much bigger than the asteroid's visual model, and being right in front of a dock it occasionally makes docking a bit tricky. If I could get the ID, or something better to identify it, then perhaps the getting hit by invisible bits of asteroid could get fixed easier.
(This would also help in a case where someone has found a really nice roid but being in a sea of them can't find it again)

I mean, you could just post a screenshot, with the problematic asteroid highlighted?

All asteroids have collision hulls by "type", so we really just need to know what general shape is having the problem, and we can fix that "one" everywhere in the universe at the same time.
