🌎 How to translate the game

[matix524]

Nope. That doesn’t fix anything. Restarted the game multiple times and still nothing.

[SpryterTerraxian]

Hold on, lemme refresh once again. It worked sometimes and back to English the others.
Edit: Yup, it’s back to English.

[VerMishelb]

Log out and get back without restarting the game itself.

[matix524]

Oh. Now it works.

Weird.

The League text is still in English, though.

[VerMishelb]

Almost all strings get reloaded when you rejoin the galaxy.

[ScarletCuboids]

Try alt f4 and return

[ordinary_ryxt]

someone didn’t read the rules

idk who they are, but they’re definitely finished

the wave literally translates to a fucking dark wormhole

[ngochuy20102005]

Ban without mercy

[ShardNguyen]

Apparantly, it’s ho den v1, which means Blackhole v1 :v

[ordinary_ryxt]

it still doesn’t meet the standards though, the original thing is black hole skipping

Question to everyone that translate in Polish: do you use wave/weapon/satellits/etc. names from older games that were in Polish? I’m asking, because I would try to rename some names to be more pun-oriented (if the English name has one).

[matix524]

Already translated all waves to Polish, and yes I’ve used translations from previous games because they were already good enough. As for the new waves, I went creative and tried to make them have the same taste as in previously translated games.
I’ve polished weapons and satellite names to sound more clear and less awkward. Especially the Riddler.

[SpryterTerraxian]

yay

@ans1382

you have to add several fonts to the game

That’s not an option.

I’ve added some partial RTL support when editing, and I’ll tackle the “separated letters” later.

@EasternLich

So everything that it isn’t a name of a game or we don’t know we leave it untranslated?

Anything you can’t translate, it’s preferrable to just leave it empty. Someone else will see it and come up with a better translation.

@EasternLich

Probably has been fixed with last patch

Yes it has, in v.71.2

@MNaeemi777

Letters are not connected

I’m looking into this

@MNaeemi777

typed mirrored

This has been fixed in v.72

@SpryterTerraxian

Hindi keyboard doesn’t have colons for some reason

I’ll fix this in v.72

@SpryterTerraxian

it separates them both and I get this

Thai has the same problem, apparently. Unsure if/how it can be fixed yet.

@LordSuteo

One actually stands for attempts, the other is for key rewards

Nice catch fixed

@Francis

By the way, the “Important”, “Events” and “Notifications” translations don’t seem to be working.

You need to logout/login to refresh your Inbox. Read the instructions.

@Kylo-Hen

I’ve literally never seen before in another game

Well, not to toot my own horn, but I’m quite proud of how this turned out. It’s not the most comprehensive thing (just look at all the problems with various non-Latin languages), but this level of integration and near-instant translation feedback is unprecedented, I think.

@Francis

A, what’s my “New assignment” translation doing in the English version?

The server sends you messages using the language from your last game session. As soon as you press Ctrl+T, your language becomes Italian. If you want to revert to receiving English messages, you should launch the game and login/logout without pressing Ctrl+T.

@Kylo-Hen

what’s to stop a maliciously-minded translator slipping something “bad” into an infrequently-appearing message

Nothing, for now. I think there will eventually need to be a second phase where the current “most popular” translation will be handed to a “trusted” native speaker (or even a professional translation company) for a top-to-bottom review.

Part of the problem is that the game’s text is currently in a state of flux, so any attempt to nail down a translation would be a fool’s errand.

@Kylo-Hen

would a serious, complete translation into a fictional language (say, Sindarin) be permissible

I can’t just start supporting arbitrary languages. What you say is a possibility, but sufficient demand for it would first need to be demonstrated.

@hale

I was just gonna ask about if any vulgarity is allowed.

No, not at all. The game’s rating is 7+ and children as young as 3 play it. And then there’s the various religious adults that complain when you use “hell” or even “damn it”

@Francis

(It’s in the English version).

It’s a bug, fixed in the main v.71 thread

@ScarletCuboids

iA, we think we messed up something, can you help us a bit

Looks like a misplaced line break |. Move it so that it’s outside the double quotes “…”

@matix524

The “player has not logged in recently” prompt isn’t translated despite putting text in the tool.

Hmm. These messages are coming from the server. Fixed in v.72

@SpryterTerraxian

Does the “Can’t zoom in any further” translation also not work? I tried translating and it didn’t work.

You need to logout/login

@matix524

Nope. That doesn’t fix anything. Restarted the game multiple times and still nothing.

Restarting won’t fix it. You need to login, press Ctrl+T, then logout/login without restarting in between.

All in favour of adding Hodor as a language?

• Yes

[OneWingLunarian]

Hodor

[SpryterTerraxian]

Hodor

Next person gets banned.

Duly noted. Gotta keep the kiddies safe and the religious folks, uh, not triggered?
(i couldn’t think of a better word for a replacement. :Д)

[EasternLich]

More than that is to follow the PEGI ratings and have family friendly language, so modulate the language. Is just that
