Description

Issue: On the VAB, or Plane Hangar, when naming a Ship, accented characters don't seem to use the same font as the rest of the text.

Steps to reproduce:
1)Enter VAB or Hangar
2)In the text area reserved for naming a ship, write any random name, and it will use that pixellated font.
3)Attempt to write any accented character such as ü, á, é, í, ó, ú, ç, etc and you will see the bug.

Proof:

This happens on KSP 0.24.0.549, Win7 SP1 32Bit. I have a vanilla install and a modded install and both have the same issue.
Thanks for your time :)

I can confirm this is still present in the latest steam version. There is also a problem in the tracking station: in the info panel of a tracked object accents are completely missing (see attached screenshots).

#6 Updated by ap0r almost 10 years ago

Confirmed Tracking station info panel variant. Probably they use a font wich has no accents.

It is still happening in 1.1.3, and is perfectly reproducible using the steps that I've posted above
1)Enter VAB or Hangar
2)In the text area reserved for naming a ship, write any random name, and it will use that pixellated font.
3)Attempt to write any accented character such as ü, á, é, í, ó, ú, ç, etc and you will see the bug.

What kind of clarification do you require?

Hi Ap0r, we are doing a mass cleanup on reported bugs, you can read more about it here: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/143980-time-to-clean-up-the-bug-tracker/

The TL;DR is that its not an indication of anything wrong with your report, there are soo many old bugs in the tracker that we cant give the devs a good picture of whats still an issue - so we have set up a process for all bugs from pre 1.1.3 to collect the info and get them confirmed for the devs to be able to plan on whats current and important to the players.

I'll change the staus to confiremd and we can go from there
