Translation of scripts

[dxangelo]

Hello!

I redo some mods and translate them into several languages. Not to translate the script a few times I edit scripts adding a $sign to the text. But I noticed that not everything can be translated. I read the SkyUI documentation, but found nothing there that can help.

 

For example, this string works fine and the translation is picked up from the translation file...

_iSyncHeightWerewolfID = AddToggleOption("$PSA_SyncWith", FPHmain.WerewolfSyncHeight)

and this does not work anymore...

_iSyncHeightWerewolfID = AddToggleOption("$PSA_SyncWith" + " " + FPHmain.GetRaceName(), FPHmain.WerewolfSyncHeight)

Maybe there are ways to solve this problem?

 

Similarly, translation does not work in:

            if (a_conflictName != "")
                msg = "This key is already mapped to:\n'" + a_conflictControl + "'\n(" + a_conflictName + ")\n\nAre you sure you want to continue?"
            else
                msg = "This key is already mapped to:\n'" + a_conflictControl + "'\n\nAre you sure you want to continue?"
            endIf
            continue = ShowMessage(msg, true, "$Yes", "$No")

if you bring to mind: 

           if (a_conflictName != "")
                msg = "$KeyMapped" + ":\n'" + a_conflictControl + "'\n(" + a_conflictName + ")\n\n" + "$SureContinue"
            else
                msg = "$KeyMapped" + ":\n'" + a_conflictControl + "'\n\n" + "$SureContinue"
            endIf
            continue = ShowMessage(msg, true, "$Yes", "$No")

Although the variables $Yes and $No well translated...

 

Help if you know... The very meaning of such a translation is lost, if due to some points you still need to keep the script file in different languages...

I am fairly certain the $stuff is only translated visually and the script will use the string as written in the script internally, meaning you can't localize concatenated strings. I don't know though. 

 

You could try something like this:

Quote

String Function GetSureContinue()

    return "$SureContinue"

EndFunction

 

String Property SureContinue = "$SureContinue" AutoReadOnly

And use the property or call the function, respectively.

Translating variables can be a bit treacherous.
Yes and No should not be a boolean, instead of a string?

Helped me to solve the issue! Thanks to everyone who did not remain indifferent!

Describe how it was and how you need to translate:

EXAMPLE 1

from org.psc:

_iSyncHeightWerewolfID = AddToggleOption("Sync With " + FPHmain.GetRaceName(), FPHmain.WerewolfSyncHeight)

for translation in org.psc:

_iSyncHeightWerewolfID = AddToggleOption("$PSA_SyncWith{" + FPHmain.GetRaceName() + "}", FPHmain.WerewolfSyncHeight)

for translation in org_lang.txt:

$PSA_SyncWith{}	Sync With {}

 

EXAMPLE 2

from org.psc:

if (a_conflictName != "")
				msg = "This key is already mapped to:\n'" + a_conflictControl + "'\n(" + a_conflictName + ")\n\nAre you sure you want to continue?"
			else
				msg = "This key is already mapped to:\n'" + a_conflictControl + "'\n\nAre you sure you want to continue?"
			endIf

for translation in org.psc:

if (a_conflictName != "")
				msg = "$mHUD_KeyMapConflict1{" + a_conflictControl + "}{" + a_conflictName + "}"
			else
				msg = "$mHUD_KeyMapConflict2{" + a_conflictControl + "}"
			endIf

for translation in org_lang.txt:

$mHUD_KeyMapConflict1{}{}	This key is already mapped to:\n{}\n({})\n\nAre you sure you want to continue?
$mHUD_KeyMapConflict2{}	This key is already mapped to:\n{}\n\nAre you sure you want to continue?

Maybe someone will be useful))
