Hello, I just added the expansion the other day and am having a problem with changing my civilization's leader name in set up.

If I change the default leader name and keep the rest of the information then it'll show the new name and a hyphen and then nothing. This really screws up the hall of fame with overlapping icons and blank details. If I change the civilization name to something else it'll work fine, but if I change it back to the default name I'm prevented from doing so. I can change the civilization name, short name and adjective name to anything BUT the default name.

Any help would be appreciated.
 
As far as I know, this issue has been in civV since the beginning. I have been working around this problem by fixing the civV savegames DB after the game using a SQLite editor (or simply not editing the civ name). However, this is quite cumbersome and I guess one needs some DB affinity to get it done.

I never made an issue of it towards 2K/Firaxis myself, because I felt there were more urgent matters :) I would really like it if this issue were to be tackled in a future update.
