Started bug check for 0.26, but I wanted to mention this oddity now

- Becca Library Talk "There's a cookbook here with pictures so good I almost cried. [player_name] , I'm not kidding."

Now, I can only guess that maybe the text was written in another program and then moved to the code, cause the only way I can see this error is "_" is a special variant (like how if you type "Name - James" into word the "-" extends in length) other than that, it would be some hidden character that is only on the code side

I haven't come across any other instances yet, so this could be a one off, but I figured flag this now as it is in the list of Bug Fixes

I really, REALLY hope that's a one off... even using the find and replace feature in visual studio, it still took a while to change all of those, and I tested a handful that previously didn't work. I'll look and see if I can adjust those.

I found one other one Becca Beach Talk Stage 5 "[player_name] , come in the water with me. Just for a minute. We'll be out in an hour." but other than that, most of the other instances have been fine

I'm going to do some testing to see if there is a way to not need the space between [player_name] and the next character cause there should be some method for that

Okay, now I am throughly puzzled, ran this line in Ren,py

- player_name "Hi, I am [player_name], does that look right?"

And it prints correctly, if I do this it bugs out and prints as [player_name]

- player_name "Hi, I am [[player_name], does that look right?"

I tried put alternate Unicode versions of " _ " and " , " but the get flagged either in the code or caused a runtime error, so that should rule those options out

I'm testing with Ren,py 8.5.2 so unless there is a version difference I'm truly at a loss as to what is going on
