Thread: Special Characters

  1. #1

    Default Special Characters

    We're looking at adding special characters that are allowed into chat.

    Currently these are allowed:

    ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwx yz `1234567890-=~!@#$%^&*()_+[]\\;\',./{}|:\"<>?ßáàâãäåæçèéêëìíîïòóôõöøùúüýýñ£°

    These were suggested to be added:

    Ä Ö Ü €

    Are there any other commonly used characters, that might be used by non-English speaking players, that would be beneficial into adding?

    Or would it simply be a matter of adding a capitalized version of these characters: áàâãäåæçèéêëìíîïòóôõöøùúüýýñ

    If someone could type these out in capitalized versions, for copy/paste (and any other suggestions), that'd be greatly appreciated.

    Please add these ones too: û, Û (û is used in french, not sure for the capitalized version, but just in case).

    Is there a specific reason, why characters needs to be whitelisted? Is it in case someone uses strange characters to flood the chat? Otherwise UTF-8 could just be used, but that was just a guess without knowing, why characters are not allowed.

    The list of characters supported is from the early days of trying to to figure out how to support international character sets / deal with language filters.

    It looks like these were added on today's Client on Blight. Blight Client 397.76.0

    Feel free to test it out, by using the Patch to Blight option in Launcher's configuration button.

    € and Œ wasn't included as it won't render in the font library. Sorry about that.

    This is what's included:

    ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwx yz `1234567890-=~!@#$%^&*()_+[]\;',./{}|:"<>?ßáàâãäåæçèéêëìíîïòóôõöøùúüýýñ£°ÂÀÄûÛÊÎÔËÏÖ ÜÆÇÉÈÙÓ
