Hi!

After i bought the game just recently, i couldn't log in in game. After a few try i realized that i can't write # in anywhere on the login screen. I had to copy paste my password from elsewhere. And i think it isn't the only special caracter witch the game can't recognice. Because if i copy paste only just # into my password, i still can't log in. I use Hungarian keybord (QWERTZ).

We don't restrict the password field to any characters. When I test I'm able to type the # character without any problems.

What language option are you using? Does it work if you try other language options (or if you have one - a different keyboard?)

I use default English, but i tried Hungarian and other 3 language option in game. I tried both on my laptop and my desktop, but i couldn't type # in any cases.

1. Can you type it in train station name for example?
2. Are you running Windows?

1. No can't type it nor in train stations name, nor in console. Basicaly nowhere in game.
2. Yes, i am running Windows 10.

Is it typed with Shift-3 (in English layout) ?

I have Hungarian layout(QWERTZ). Alt Gr + X is #.

I think it's some kind of "Alt Gr" problem in Allegro. To confirm - can you try emulating classic keyboard or smth like that when # is shift-3 and report if it works or not?
(we will solve this problem anyway, just would make it faster, so we look in the right place)

After i set my keyboard to en-us in windows i could type # in game with Shift + 3.

Fixed for coming release.
