All number plates on every car save to "supr-pig"

Hello all, this is my first post here.


I come here with quite annoying problem:

All vehicles have had their license plate slowly changed to "supr-pig" over the course of some time;
This happens after I use the Super Pig. The vehicle has a custom license plate that saves to every car I use after. It's spreads like a virus. I'm not sure how to explain but I'll make an example:

-Uses the Super Pig vehicle
-Gets bored of it, swaps to another vehicle
-The new vehicle's license plate is still "supr-pig"
-Uses another new vehicle afterwards, the license plate is, you guessed, "supr-pig."
-Continue until nearly all vehicles have "supr-pig" instead of a normal license plate.

I've started to manually reset the license plates of all the affected cars to be normal, but that's an annoyingly long process and a gruelling one to say the least.


Help would be much appreciated, thanks.



PS here is a visual representation of what I'm talking about (open the image in a new tab and zoom in)

 

Normally, after you closed the game and restarted it it should revert back to your steam name (or a random number depending of the option you choosed), if i'm right.

 

Thanks! I'll see if it works now

I don't want to be annoying but how exactly do you restart the game? I cleared my cache but I'm pretty sure that is not what you mean by "restarting it"

 

I just meant closing it and launching it

 

Nope, doesn't work

This may be a bit overboard but should I uninstall the game and reinstall it? I've only got 2 mods and the only setting I have only tampered with is the controls for accelarate, brake, turn, etc.

thanks for your help, Agent_Y and Turbo49>!

 

I've fixed it permanently now! It had nothing to do with the game. All you need to do is change the number plate of the Super Pig to whatever you want and press 'save configuration'. Also make sure to do the same to any cars that have had their number plates change to "supr-pig"
