Profanity as Roboport name

Post by EricCoon »

Hi,

as found out in https://www.facebook.com/groups/1722060 ... 475842269/ there was a profanity choosen as roboport name.
The profanity is "der Führer" which is commonly used by german nazis to refer to Hitler.

I would suggest removing that name ;)

with best regards EricCoon

The only thing in the bakers file is: "der F\u00fchrer", is that what you meant?

\u00fc is unicode for ü

Thanks for the report however Hitlers name is not profanity.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Is not profanity, but feels like propaganda though. This is not a historical game where the mention of "the fürher" would make sense in the context. The baker's intention was likely to troll and generate controversy.

And, due to the Streisand Effect, he has.
