[0.15.34] Train stops with space in name are invisible

Post by daniel34 »

In a train system, rename a train stop to "as df" and another one to "asdf". In the train selection dialog only the "asdf" one will be visible.

However the "asdf" train only stops at train stops that are actually named "asdf", it won't stop at train stops named "as df". It is impossible to make a train go to the "as df" stop because it is not listed, unless it has been set up to do so before the "asdf" stop was built (or renamed).

Here's an example:

The stop at the top is named "asdf" and the bottom one "as df". It is impossible to make the train go to the bottom stop, because it is not listed when you try to add that stop.

I tested on my own save and notice the same circumstance, but the opposite problem. Maybe it's because I named them in a different sequence. The one named "asdf", without a space, is the one invisible and unusable for me. The one named "as df", with a space, is the one I could add to my train's list of stops and which it successfully went to.

Hello, thanks for the report.
It is indeed a bug in our "smart string comparison function", which, instead of skipping trailing spaces skips all spaces.
Fixed for 0.16

Has C++ no vanilla string functions including trim?

c++ doesn't have https://www.npmjs.com/package/string-natural-compare
