To support translation into Germanic languages all in-game fonts should support umlauts.

Where can't you use them? It should work just about anywhere where you enter text as a normal player, there might be places in the non-user-editable text where you can't use them at the moment as they might not be included in the font files some of that text uses though.

Summary: Cant use ö,ä,üSupport umlauts in all in-game fonts

The game doesn't yet support translation (and it will probably be a while yet as we want to prioritize gameplay features + it's not much use to start translating the game before the English text has reached a more stable state). That doesn't mean that the game shouldn't support umlauts, just that it isn't a priority right now, so I'm moving it to the "Backlog" milestone (which simply means that it will be decided later when it will be implemented).
