Maybe a new Translation System

Currently i'm thinking about an easy way to make translations.

It's not easy for the translators to translate the mod in another language because after each update they have to renew everything.

 

I think about reading in the Translation-Ini file that normaly contains the MCM translation, and getting the content out of it.

But it's nor possible to translate Items using this methode. So I also thought about moving all Items with an displayed name into the "Basic AddOn Pack" (Contraception Fluid, Wash Out Fluid, Sanitary Napkin, ...)

Well, this shouldn't be a big problem.

The next step would be hiding the Beeing Female quest. This is depricated at all. There are widgets that display the current phase.

 

Then only the Basic AddOn Pack must be translated once - and this won't change anymore.

 

I already tried to make it as easy as possible for translators - but this don't realy make sense when i have to update BeeingFemale all the time.

But first of all i have to take a look if this would realy work without losing to much performance when the game is loading

Even if you don't manage to do the new translation system or better yet before doing it. Please hide the quest as a priority as this can really mess up the miscellaneous quests section of journal.

Well, thought i had it, but it seems there are still some problems using Multibit Signs like chinese, russian or japanese characters. But it can be that it only won't work in germany, because Ä Ö Ü still working.

Seems someone has to test it.

 

Another thing is, that it won't be possible to remove all "Displayed" items like i thought, but BeeingFemale will be able to translate using the lString Files.

So it will be possible to translate the mod and keep the translations even after updating. That was one of the most important reasons i made all the translation stuff.
