It'd be nice to be able to use punctuation on Sign Posts!

Yes, sorry, should have provided more details.

It's weird b/c the pre-filled options for sign posts have punctuation.

Not only Punctuation is gone when the map is saved. All line breaks (dont know how to say in english) are gone too. All Text is written like this...:

Gwynned nnGwynned formerly known as Tuskanvil has been the Imperial capital of Ergoth since after the Cataclysm It is located along the Dermount River and is a port city where the river meets the Emperors Bay on the Sirrion Sea It is connected to Landfall to the northwest and Hillfort to the southeast by the Emperors Road The Emperor of Ergoth still rules from this city along with the Ergoth SenatenThe city was built overlooking the Sirrion Sea with defenses to protect it from naval attack as well as sudden changes in the weather When these sudden storms do hit there are alarms that are sounded with different war horns Four watchtowers guard the perimeter of the main portion of the city and one major harbor juts out into Emperors Bay The city also has many gladiatorial arenas opera houses and many centers for artistic and academic pursuitsnThe city is inhabited by all races save kender which are very rare Should even the rumor of a kender appear city guards are set to capture and deal with them

I have made a fix for this in the mapeditor now.
It worked for me when I did some quick testing.
So please give it a go and let me know how it goes. :-)
It should allow 5 extra characters now --> !.,:- <--

As usual since this is a fix on already running code, you must reload the cache-files.
In Firefox an F5 (when mapeditor is loaded) is usual enough.
In Chrome you need to go and select delete offline cache.

Punctuation works!

But, line spacing is not being applied.

What browser and operating system do you use?
Do you have any map where you tried to add several rows?

Chrome & Vista (yeah, Vista).

In my map "Abandoned Kingdom" that I have in finalized status I've put in punctuation and break lines (the break lines show in the Map Editor, but don't translate when a game is started).

I have a game up against the AI, Game 1524 called "signpost test" :D

There are posts near each starting capital that should have break lines between each sentence.

Ahh!
So the linebreaks show in the mapeditor but not in the game?

I guess punctuation shows in both mapeditor and game now then?
