I was trying to change my name to FeatherFlightBCD. Before it was FeatherFlight F.
I tried changing my name and it was like,
'You can't put spaces before or after your name!'
But their wasn't any spaces.
So I tried re-typing it and the same thing came up.
So I restarted FH and the same thing came up.
???

Be sure to completely clear out the name when typing

you might want to try reinstalling, i feel like there was a quicker fix to this, (generally restarting the game) but seeing as that's not working. perhaps try changing the name of a different character (or new one) and see if the problem is spread there also

OK so...
Tried it with a new character and it worked perfectly fine.
Tried it with an old character and it worked.
Tried it with Featherflight...
Didn't work again...

Tried renaming her 'lalala' (xD) didn't work.
Cleared out her whole name and re-typing it... didn't work.
:/

Tried running as admin, didn't work...
would re-installing everything make me lose it all? D:

Weird I went through this same exact thing just yesterday when I tried editting a characters name. Same thing like you said there were no spaces in the name anywhere and I kept getting that error message. No matter how many time I would exit the editor and reenter I could not rename that character. I'm not to fussy about changing the name of that character but I do find this weird... maybe it's just another weird bug on Feral Heart.
I never tried uninstalling the game and reinstalling to see if maybe possibly that would fix that problem. If you do that though you have to back up any custom mods you downloaded etc, (I believe) presets & maps have to be backed up too I could be wrong but just as a precaution... basically any extras that you downloaded separately from the official FH download you need to back up some how.

wouldn't it be as easy as to recreate the character?

True but when I tried that yesterday I got that error message still. I just kind of gave up on it since I didn't want to have to go through all the effort of saving files and uninstalling/reinstalling FH. It's worth a try though.

I tried it again today and the same thing came up ;-;
Is that going to go away eventually or no... Dx

I'll try it again later I guess, and I don't want to re-create the charrie because she's in a clan.
If I re-install, can I just copy all the files on the first one I made and move it to the new one? That sounds a a a lot easier and I don't think it would make a difference... xD

Zis' message usually pops up when you've reached your limit to characters, I don't think you'll need to re-install x3.
