Accented characters and Favoritecivicdetector

[openyourmind]

Hi there,

Just quick heads up, Favoritecivicdetector isn't set up to use non standard characters.

I've added the following lines and all is swell

# encoding=utf8 
import sys 

reload(sys) 
sys.setdefaultencoding('utf8')

For normal users who probably came by error "Error in BeginActivePlayerTurn event handler <bound method FavoriteCivicDetector.onBeginActivePlayerTurn of <FavoriteCivicDetector.FavoriteCivicDetector instance" or "'ascii' codec can't encode character" just do the following.

1. Find the FavoriteCivicDetector.py file, usually resides at Mod in question\Assets\Python\Contrib
2. In the beginning you will have this
   

   ## FavoriteCivicDetector
   ##
   ## Keeps track of changing Diplomacy modifiers to guess what an
   ## AI's favorite civic is. The intended use is for the Foreign Advisor
   ## to figure out and then display the correct favorite civic of an
   ## AI leader when playing with the Random Personalities option.

   import BugUtil
   import PlayerUtil
   import SdToolKit
   
   # BUG - Mac Support - start
   BugUtil.fixSets(globals())
   # BUG - Mac Support - end

3. Just change it to this:
   

   ## FavoriteCivicDetector
   ##
   ## Keeps track of changing Diplomacy modifiers to guess what an
   ## AI's favorite civic is. The intended use is for the Foreign Advisor
   ## to figure out and then display the correct favorite civic of an
   ## AI leader when playing with the Random Personalities option.

   # encoding=utf8  
   import sys  
   
   reload(sys)  
   sys.setdefaultencoding('utf8')
   
   # BUG - Mac Support - start
   BugUtil.fixSets(globals())
   # BUG - Mac Support - end

   Don't know if this will cause any more errors but so far works for me. If I find any problems will edit this post.
