Naming

I'd like to note that the naming of this company is very unclear - in-game it appears as RKEA or R<?>KEA. That means that there should have been another character there, which got messed up during encoding. I believe that it is called ROKEA somewhere, so I always imagine that it is supposed to be RÖKEA, but I might be wrong about that. Oh, and that IKEA thing doesn't make that much sense to me - it's not furniture... --dgelessus ^{(talk · contribs)} 10:00, 23 August 2013 (CDT)

Now I looked it up for the too lights, and in the part.cfg it's only RKEA without any umlaut. But there is also a company named RÖKEA but I can't remember what parts are from them. About the IKEA thing: There is also a company abbreviated will form MPEG and yeah there is nothing in the simulation where MPEG is required. Feel free to remove it, or maybe you have a better idea why this was changed. Obviously KKEA (IKEA with the K in the beginning) doesn't work well. — xZise [talk] 10:42, 23 August 2013 (CDT)

Okay here it is: Category:RÖKEA Inc. If RKEA Inc. is simply a spelling error and they forgot to add the umlaut (are there even any German speaking devs?) then this IKEA reference is of course nonsense. — xZise [talk] 10:44, 23 August 2013 (CDT)

As I said, I'm not sure about the umlaut. Something has to go there which is not a standard character, and I believe having seen ROKEA somewhere - so this was just my logical conclusion. Maybe that was in an earlier version, as I can't find it in 0.21... --dgelessus ^{(talk · contribs)} 12:04, 23 August 2013 (CDT)

Okay just from looking at the part configuration file it is [http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/fffd/index.htm � (U+FFFD)] when encoded UTF-8 an clearly not an Ö. I don't know where this (Ö) comes from. I haven't checked if it is displayed differently ingame, but it is (in theory) not like a place holder when your editor can't display that character. Now I'm not sure if this is intended or it was an Ö in any previous version, but it is different RKEA in the part.cfg is encoded differently (so no issue on our editors). — xZise [talk] 12:17, 23 August 2013 (CDT)

Ooookay I'm curious: Parts/telescopicLadderBay/part.cfg and Parts/telescopicLadder/part.cfg were uploaded by you and with a(n?) Ö. — xZise [talk] 12:19, 23 August 2013 (CDT)

Ah, there we go. If you check those files in 0.21, it has the U+FFFD char instead of an Ö there. Oh, and I definetely didn't "fix" that manually - all I did was copying the contents of the file and pasting it into pre tags. --dgelessus ^{(talk · contribs)} 14:36, 23 August 2013 (CDT)
