Company Name Bug

Hello there, I’m a budding web designer and I’m loving this game right now, however, I named the company <br /> because I thought seeing as how I’m getting into web development, it’d be a neat name for a company. Now, when I do this, it actually does a like break, and nothing is displayed at all. It’s pretty funny, and I can’t believe it even happened. I tried naming a game <B>Awesome</B> but nothing happened. So yeah, that’s the bug I guess. Thanks for making the game though, me and a friend bought it yesterday and it’s awesome!!

Kind regards

I believe this is due to the language the game was developed in.

Yeah I thought the same too, I mean I guess <br /> is widely used in many languages, I noticed the ` character here allows code to be displayed, I wonder if that would work surrounding the company name in game.

You should definitely give it a try and let me know if it works.

Alright the ` key surrounding < br /> doesn’t work. So I’m not sure what else would fix it. I tried to post an image but as I’m a new user I couldn’t. I put a link to it though.

It would seem like it cannot be done. I’m not directly involved with development though, so you might want to ask @PatrickKlug

You could try escaping the angle brackets by using \ (\< and \>) before them. Another thing is trying &lt; or &gt;. Those are all common methods of escaping angle brackets.

That looks awesome, though I’m not overly familiar with languages at the moment so I’m not entirely sure how I’d write that in. I tried in here but coudn’t get it to work, though the <>'s showed up, the br didn’t.

It’d come out to being

\<br\>
or
&lt;br&gt;

So try them out and see if it comes out as expected. :slight_smile:

Alright I got this one to work here --> <br /> which was

&lt;br /&gt;

But when tried in game it didn’t work either.

The other one, \<br\> I couldn’t get to work in game or here.
