FS22_additionalCurrencies - add currency symbol issue

Post by drewCZ »

Hello, @Rockstar especially. Using the mod FS22_additionalCurrencies, I tried to add a currency ITL - the Italian Lira, because I play an old Italian map. Unfortunately, it is impossible to insert the symbol '₤'. The field in the display is empty in-game. Does anybody know how to fix it?
Of course, I can use ITL short, but ₤ is nice :-)
In the XML config file, I have this row:

Code: Select all

<currency text="Italian Lira" symbol="₤" prefixSymbol="false" factor="1936.27" maxDisplayValue="9999999999999" iconScale="0.7" yOffset="0.002"/>
it doesn't show additional currencies anymore

Code: Select all

<currency text="$l10n_unit_italianLira" symbol="₤" prefixSymbol="false" factor="1936.27" maxDisplayValue="9999999999999" iconScale="0.7" yOffset="0.002"/>
show currency with empty symbol, when

Code: Select all

symbol="₤"
is replaced by

Code: Select all

symbol="ITL"
everything works well.

Thanks for any help.

This is because the game doesn't have such a character in the font texture. I had the same problem with it, which is why some currencies have shortcuts instead of the correct symbol. It's possible that in future updates, I will add the option to include the symbol as a texture, just like in FS19, but it will still only work on the HUD, not in the store, selling points, etc.

@Rockstar49 thank you. Symbols will be fine, anyway, it is "cherry picks". The mod is great! Thank you.
A small improvement maybe, will be fine the currency store in the save. I have to switch currencies every time a different save/map is loaded. But I think you know it :-)
