This command is unreliable/broken when it comes to some non-ASCII characters (as of Arma 3 v1.58):
"Mörser" splitString "" // -> ["M"," "," ","r","s","e","r"] "Mörser" splitString "ö" // -> ["M","rser"] "Mörser" splitString "ä" // -> ["M"," rser"]

- This commands works only with ASCII chars, any chars with codes > 127, also used in different languages, will be converted to [" ", " "]. Use toArray to preserve special characters:

- When working with string which contain linebreaks... ...one can remove those by adding endl as delimiter
