whererufrom cheat discovery

[tengeta520]

I don't really know if this is considered a brainbuster (or even a discovery) to begin with, but I was completely baffled over the years of playing SC4 and not being able to rename my city anything more than just a single word. If you type a space, you get nothing after the space. For some reason last night I felt like quoting the name like this to see what happens:

whererufrom "City Name"

It turns out the quotations were interpreted and my cities can be renamed to anything including multiple words, which I originally hoped for. Hopefully this helps anyone else out who has had the same issue with the cheat, and if you knew about this sooner let me know so I can slap myself on the forehead. I honestly never noticed this on any SC4 cheat list, so I'm not sure how many know about it.

Funny, I was having that same problem and had no idea how to fix it. Thanks for the helpful tip.

Thanks for sharing! I was experiencing that problem too!

Well, this has been discovered as early as 2007, at least. See this topic on ST [linkie], and then the fourth post. Doesn't mean that I don't appreciate your efforts, or that I knew of this topic existed on ST 'till today.

What I always did was Alt+0160 the space in.
