Special characters not supported

[chabrault]

Hi,

When I tried to run the game with shiny::runApp(), I had several errors due to special characters:

• In module_gameInit_params.R and in func_gameInit_validation, $\mu$ was not supported.
• in ui_about.R, l.31 "Breeder's" was not supported and l. 40 "Timothée" was not supported.

These characters were displayed correctly.

In R / Global Options / Saving, the default text encoding was set to "UTF-8".

When I replace these characters, everything works.

Thank you for your message.

You mentioned:

[...]
These characters were displayed correctly.

Do you have errors like you can't even start the game or you can start the game but the app it display some error messages on the screen ?

In R / Global Options / Saving, the default text encoding was set to "UTF-8".
Indeed, all the code files are encoded with "UTF-8" could you confirm you read (not save) those file with UTF-8 encoding too?

Do you have this problem too if you run the game with the docker image ?

When I said that the special characters were displayed correctly, I meant in RStudio, when I opened the R scripts. The game couldn't start.

I'm trying to find a way to run the game from docker, I'll tell you once I've managed it.
