Cannot write non-English letters in text boxes #3198

Describe the bug
When trying to type non-ASCII letters such as "ä" in text boxes, no character is added.

To Reproduce

  1. Be using a non-English keyboard layout, such as German.
  2. Start a new game, and try naming your company owner or a train or whatever "äöüß".

If you are on Windows 10, you can change your keyboard layout to German with the following steps:

  1. Windows settings (Windows key + I) → Time & Language → Language
  2. Under Preferred languages, click "Add a language" and install Deutsch (Deutschland).
  3. Now you can hold the windows key and tap the space bar to select your keyboard layout.
  4. Bonus: If you don't like the printing on your keyboard being incorrect, use the On-Screen Keyboard app.
