Bug Description

In some story texts (I think about three), there is formatting stuff shown (see attached screenshot). This happens within the English and the German version (though the German version does not contain the translation yet, the screenshot is from the German version).

One bug per report please :(

1) Gun, assigned to you as the fromatting stuff is probably related to the string conversion.

2) I think scrolling back is something that the user should not be needing hand holding for anymore, so I think it is fine that the screen does not go back. It is easy enough to add too though. On the side note: yes, it should be possible to check that the user is not in roadbuilding mode before showing a dialogue. I think that is a good idea and warrants a new bug report - can you open one please?

3) I did safe my citizen by dismantling all buildings before the water can get to them. I think loosing a building is rather important, so I think a message is warranted.

4) "I wonder why this was not fixed with the big string change." There is no general fix to that. We have only the name of the building translated, but to construct a correct sentence in German you would need at this point the grammatical gender and that would influence the sentence. In other languages you would probably need more information.

The big string change was a huge undertaking - we essentially rewrote a book you could say. Some things slipped by by accident, but some things are just not solved (this is an example).

Sorry, I did not want to write that much reports for such small things. But since I see we might need to discuss, I split the other reports out (and updated the title and description accordingly):

1) Stays here.

2) I moved the side note to bug 1298301. When it is fixed, I think scrolling back is not that important any more.

3) Is not bug 1298304.

4) Can now be found in bug 1298309. I see that this is not easy to fix.

Will pick 1 up when I get back. There is a mismatch with opening/closing html tags when using the "speech" function sometimes.
