WhereRUFrom cheat not working properly

[ReshiramLover 48]

I accidentally named a city the same name as a city that is already in the region, and I already built on all the land (small city), so I tried the WhereRUFrom cheat but it is not working properly

 

I tried renaming 'Zekrom Black' to 'Van Buren' but when I type into the cheat window, WhereRUFrom Van Buren, it names the city "Van" not "Van Buren" The city name is incomplete.

 

How do I fix this?

WhereRUFrom "Van Buren"    Use quotes to contain names with spaces.

@ReshiramLover, Did you even try to search for an answer? I just Googled "SimCity 4" WhereRUFrom spaces, and the top result was, "Is There a Way to Rename a City to Something With More Than One Word?" from 2012. You could at least pretend to put in some effort before asking it of others; it would make us feel that we're not taken for granted.

I'm going to disagree with the tone of your message.

Sure, one can use Google and find answers to most common questions for SC4. But, where did those come from? Someone asked. Then someone answered. This thread now becomes another topic which Google will assimilate into its database and it'll also be flagged as a current response. Then there's also the fun of being the first one to reply with the correct answer.  @RandyE won the race for this one.

Basically what I'm saying is it's ok to ask questions. Sometimes even the simplest question and answer sessions sparks a related question and one or more of us learn something we didn't know.

It's worth it to revive this old thread for those of us(like me) who were trying whereufrom as opposed to WhereRUFrom. The last one works. I love this game, and it's great to see some of us still playing it.
