Incomplete unit names
« le: 16 février 2010, 16:27:55 pm »
Can't imagine any reason for this but many standard unit names in the OoB editor lack their final character. This is mainly a problem of German units (Austrians and Bavarians). I.e. Regiment Kronprinz is spelled "Kronprin", von Simbschen "von Simbsche" and so on. German speaking people have no problem to complete the names manually but others maybe don't identify these errors. Should be corrected.

If needed I could create a list of these names.

There is a 30 character limit  on the length of unit names.  JMM knows about it.

The errors I mean have nothing to do with the 30 character limit. The erroneous names are all shorter then 30 characters (i.e. "IR 53 von Simbsche" = 18 characters. I think these are just incomplete entries in the database.

It's the same in French : ... régiment à Pie(d)
... régiment étrange(r)

Thanks, I had noticed this and was wondering what à Pie meant. I should have known but it is many years since I studied French, sadly
Has anyone seen my leg?
