    I'd say:

    Universal Assembler

    because it's a reference to a Universal Assembler as proposed by Drexler and a wordplay to assembling universes, which is what it does basically.

    Or maybe the Uber Assembler if you prefer Uber in the name...

    Seventy seven and counting. Hows this shaking out Uber? Are we voting or are you going to pick one that you like the most?

    I like Uber Labs (plus LAB = Light Assault Bot).
    There is however a, albeit possibly defunct, company by that name sitting on the domain http://www.uberlabs.com

    Hub is also good. A central place.
    The word Orbit the comes to mind for obvious reasons.
    Barycentre is a continuation of that theme but perhaps to obscure (link).
    Heading further out, Perihelion, is one of many great words from that area.

    Annihilation Resource Manufactory. 'Cause the ARM was totally better than the CORE :p Barring that, Planetary Anvil is a nice name too. Bank Account Extractor made me giggle :)

    How about Faction Foundry?

    Just thought since it's user created content, that whatever your going to call each "faction" (team?) would fit into it and help describe what you are offering.

    I put Hub in to a thesaurus and some words jumped out:
    • Core
    • Crux
    • Nucleus
    • Epicentre
    • Kernel

    That last one made me think all "computery", like:
    • Compiler
    • Assembler

    That's the name of a company that makes lingerie in Germany:

    Concerning copyright, that wouldn't be...

    Sorry, lost my train of thought. :D

    'Uberforge' (the hyphen seems redundant) has a very pleasing sound.

    Inter-Galactic Foundry
    If I finish my unit maker, would that be considered a mod, or a modding tool?
    As far as I'm concerned, whatever the name of your choice may be, add a "Galactic" in there, just so users get an idea of the scale ;) .

    Sometimes you just google stuff and find interesting things. Ornithology can surprise you for example.

    I didn't read ALL the previous posts so if my thoughts were already mentioned, "my bad".


    "The Big Bang"
    Higgs boson
    Higgs particle
    Higgs field (<----I needed the above lead up...)

    Miller/Urey Experiment <--- Not necessarily saying to use this as the name but this sort of thing
