A Guide For Contributing To Translation
Howdy, this is a quick guide on how to contribute to the translation of this mod.

Since the last thread wasn't created by me, I can't update it with the latest strings, so please use this one instead so I can pro-actively update whenever new strings are added. I will be locking the last one, and keep it as an archive as a shoutout to everyone who contributed to the translation process before :)

Please make a post in this thread, providing these information:

Step 1: Providing what language, its ISO 639 Code, and optionally encoding
Language

Step 2: Translate In-Game User Interface
Here are all the texts you will need to translate, replace all the English texts in quotations (") with texts in the language you want to translate to:
IGUI_RISKY_PARTY = "Party" IGUI_RISKY_PARTY_ADD_MEMBER = "Add Member"

Step 3: Translate Keybind in Options menu
Additionally, you can also translate the keybind section within the Options menu. Replace all the English texts in quotations (") with texts in the language you want to translate to:
UI_optionscreen_binding_OPTION_PARTY_SYSTEM = "Party System" UI_optionscreen_binding_OPTION_PARTY_MENU = "Open Party Menu"

Correctness & Disputes
All the translations posted were and will at least be run through Google translate before putting into the mod, since that's the least/only I can do without a dedicated translations team with me. If you spot anything that doesn't make sense, or if there could be better wording for any texts, feel free to post below.

Thank you for your contribution :spiffo:

Stay safe out there in the Knox Country, folks

@Guicsr_ Thanks for contributing. I also added new string on Step 2, would you mind translating that as well. I'll include your work in the next patch when you have the new translation!

I gotchu both, it's updated for both B41 and B42 on latest patch. Thanks for contributing :steamthumbsup:
Jianghao 12 Feb @ 6:41pm 
Sorry, the translation you uploaded should be wrong. CN (Simplified Chinese) and CH (Traditional Chinese) are both Chinese, but the usage habits are different. I use CN as my native language. But I will submit the translation files for both languages here. If someone submits a better translation of CH later, you can replace it, thanks.:steamhappy:


CN:
IG_UI_CN = { IGUI_RISKY_PARTY = "队伍", IGUI_RISKY_PARTY_ADD_MEMBER = "添加成员", }
UI_CN = { UI_optionscreen_binding_OPTION_PARTY_SYSTEM = "队伍系统", UI_optionscreen_binding_OPTION_PARTY_MENU = "打开队伍菜单", }


CH:
IG_UI_CH = { IGUI_RISKY_PARTY = "團隊", IGUI_RISKY_PARTY_ADD_MEMBER = "新增成員", }
UI_CH = { UI_optionscreen_binding_OPTION_PARTY_SYSTEM = "團隊系統", UI_optionscreen_binding_OPTION_PARTY_MENU = "開啟團隊選單", }


BTW, I found that the right-click menu has the option to ask the character to follow, if it needs to be translated:
Ask xxx to follow:
CN:要求(ask) xxx 跟随(to follow)
CH:要求 xxx 跟隨
Ask xxx to stop follow:
CN:要求 xxx 停止跟随
CH:要求 xxx 停止跟隨

Oh my bad! For some reason at that moment I was thinking about CH. I'll correct it soon. Thanks for letting me know :steamthumbsup:

Alright, I changed it. Let me know if you see anymore issue. For CH, I'll probably leave it for someone who can translate it later, cause I don't wanna offend anyone's native language :er_sweat:

I also added the follow/stop follow, even though I was a bit iffy to do so, due to some languages might not follow the same grammar rule as "Ask someone to do something", but until then, it'd stay like this.
Jianghao 12 Feb @ 8:15pm 
You're doing the right thing. Translations that ask to be followed work fine

Thank you again :steamthumbsup:
