Description

When creating a flag (i.e Runway <<<) the game will spam NullReferenceErrors and the R&D center will be unavailable. Here is a short clip of the player log:

Filename: Line: 4294967295)

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
at AnchoredDialog.setOpacity (Single value) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0
at AnchoredDialog.LateUpdate () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0

Here is a relevant forum thread:
http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/110679-can-not-go-to-sciene-building-invalid-characters-in-vessel-name/

A simple fix would be to disallow the ">" and "<" characters.
