[0.15.3] Can't type cyrillic in any locale on Linux

[rkfg]

This is a regression from 0.14. There's this bug but previously I replaced the font in the locale configs (from TitilliumWeb to DejaVuSans) and it was all ok. Now any non-ASCII chars just don't appear in any input field, including console. I was also able to write and see non-latin chars in the chat after switching the locale (without font hacks), now it doesn't help. I still can't type any cyrillic characters. Please make it like it was before, my friend plays on Windows and he can write in Russian just fine, I can also see what he types but I have to reply either in English or in translit and that's a pain.

By the way, unicode input (cyrillic at least) works fine on Mac, tested just yesterday. So it's only Linux that's affected. Could anybody confirm that?

I can confirm that this appears to be a 0.15 regression for Linux (Gnome).

Under 0.14.9 you can type using other keyboard layouts for other languages/scripts as well as use the Compose key sequences. However the default font used by Factorio does not contain Cyrillic glyphs, so they show up as spaces.

Under 0.15.9 it will simply not allow you to type non-Latin letters (the cursor won't move), nor will it allow compose key sequences to get accented Latin letters.

Thank you, that's the exact behavior I'm observing as well. Probably that's a change in the engine itself (Allegro).

Thanks, should be fixed in 0.15.12.
