Summary0021377: Russian fonts (already half work)
DescriptionIs it possible to implement russian fonts now or it's hard coded? I am asking because fonts already works... but not enought :)
For now 5 out of 33 russian letters works correct. I can use them for profile name, fleet name.
But there are blank squares instead of all other letters.

Unfortunately, it's based around what the various fonts we use support, and those are being translated into vector field fonts for TextMeshPro. Most fonts that are sci-fi themed don't tend to have full unicode support for Cyrillic and other alphabets, and it's not really possible to easily add that in for them.

I do have the original font files, however, so if someone wants to alter them to include more characters... well, I can certainly include those. That's a lot of work for someone to do, probably, though. There are also a variety of different fonts used in the game in different places, and we might change those in the future, and those would all have to be updated to support the other characters or it would work in some places but not others.

It definitely could be done, and I'm happy to include the results if someone else wants to edit the font files to make that happen, but it's not something have the time to fix on my own, and in general only the general roman character set is supported officially.
