Pixel Latin Letters?

[ReptilianGameplays]

It's kinda awkward when I want to make vessels with portuguese names and when I go to the observatory thingy and click a vessel the name comes in pixel... except for the latin letters, they come like normal text letters.

It's just a basic suggestion so yeah, I guess that's it.

You might try the Decal Letters and Numbers Mod

He gives instructions on how to change the lettering to suit your needs.

You can also try the Flag Decals and Flagpole Mod

Uses images, but may better suit what you need.

Could you post a screen please?

It is possible that it is a text encoding bug.

I believe what the OP is asking for is actually to allow non-English character sets in the actual name/filename of the vessel.

Based on personal experience with various other pieces of software such as iTunes, using non-English characters for filenames can lead to unpredictable results, especially if the user's operating system has a different language/character encoding.

You are quite right sir! I write software for English, Italian and Chinese customers and know exactly the head-ache this can cause. Especially with Cyrillic and Chinese character sets.

The first mod I mention uses graphics to display characters, so no interfering with KSP's normal operation. You could use anything with this one, even Klingon!

You do know that Latin doesn't have any non-English characters? I don't know how the letters you probably mean, but I'm pretty sure "Latin" is wrong (but I might be wrong).

tlhIngan Hol? Qapla'!

I suspect that the only way for non-Latin characters in vessel/filenames is if KSP, Unity and the user's OS all use Unicode, which allows encoding of all of the world's languages in the same character set. I know that WinXP and upwards uses the NTFS file system (and therefore Unicode file namespaces), but I dunno about Linux/OSX or Unity itself.

What the OP is saying is that his filename originally contained both Latin (English) and non-Latin characters, but the game only displays the Latin characters properly.
