I accidentally had a Shavian keyboard active when trying to name a train station and nothing was displayed. 𐑲 𐑨𐑒𐑕𐑦𐑛𐑧𐑯𐑑𐑩𐑤𐑦 𐑣𐑨𐑛 𐑩 𐑖𐑱𐑝𐑾𐑯 𐑒𐑰𐑚𐑹𐑛 𐑨𐑒𐑑𐑦𐑝 𐑢𐑧𐑯 𐑑𐑮𐑲𐑦𐑙 𐑑 𐑯𐑱𐑥 𐑩 𐑑𐑮𐑱𐑯 𐑕𐑑𐑱𐑖𐑩𐑯 𐑯 𐑯𐑳𐑔𐑦𐑙 𐑢𐑪𐑟 𐑛𐑦𐑕𐑐𐑤𐑱𐑛.
Can train station names please support all UTF?

Thanks for the report. The issue seems to be caused by the font we are using that is not supporting all possible glyphs from all languages. Moving to ideas and suggestions.

The usual idea is to have a set of fallback fonts covering all Unicode characters.
I also believe there are open/free fonts that could be bundled with Factorio that cover all current glyphs.
That said, most glyphs are covered by the OS fonts, with a notable exception of country flags.
