[2.0.28] Non-latin character limit in combinator description is lower
The description fields in combinators have a 500-character limit. This is more than enough for a small note. However, unfortunately, this only applies to Latin characters. For characters from other alphabets, such as Cyrillic, only 250 characters fit. This is exactly half, and it's no longer enough for a note. I wish this issue could be fixed.

Most likely reason is a fixed memory allocation for descriptions.
Latin characters are more commonly used, therefore encoding standards such as UTF-8 prioritize them and allow them to only use 1 byte of memory per character. Using characters from different alphabets requires more bytes, increasing memory required for each symbol.
This problem can only be fixed by increasing the description max length. You should be able to do that with a mod, but I don't think this change will be implemented in the base game.
