There have been some folks who have noticed their name-in-game has gone missing lately. In order to make sure, go into Options > Gameplay > Add name..., and type in your name to search like so.

If your name is indeed missing, there are a few ways to contact me:
* Leave your name in a comment on this post, or PM me here
* Leave a comment on the RimWorld subreddit post or PM me there
* Comment on the pinned Steam post or friend me there to PM
* Find me on Discord as Sneaks in either the official development server or in the community server

Please don't hesitate to message me in private if you don't want your name in public view. We're definitely looking into what happened, and will get it straightened out as soon as possible!

How do we check if or names are still in the game?

Open the Options, then Gameplay, then open up the 'Preferred name in game'. Type in your name, and see if it comes up. If it doesn't it's missing, and needs to be added to the list.

Purely out of curiosity (I know these things can take some time), is there any update that you can share? Thanks, again, for this thread.

I don't, sorry, I'm neither developer, nor do I have access to the name system. I'm just helping keep track of lost names.

They're being added back as often as we can, but it's being done as the game itself is updated.
