On Linux, the Return is being interpreted by the program as 'someone typed the printable unicode character 0xff0d' instead of being interpreted as the control-character carriage return because of this difference.įor reference, Unity's log file says Kerbal Space Program is running on Unity Engine 4.5.2f1, and I'm running the 64-bit version of it.

In this mod, people type in a command string and then hit Return. When it's running on Linux, the value it returns is 0xff0d instead, which is the unicode for a long-bar hypen that goes across the whole character cell, not the code for carriage return. That expression only returns the expected value of 0x000d for pressing the carriage return key when Unity is running on the Windows version of Unity, not on the Linux version. The problem seems to be that when a keyboard event happens and you query the character with the following Unity expression (this is for C#):

I'm trying to diagnose a cross-platform issue trying to read the keyboard events in a mod written for Kerbal Space Program, and I've traced the problem down to the underlying Unity engine.
