Language selection

[titanif]

Hello everyone. Has anyone tried to implement the language selection in the settings in the game? I would like to add my native language and leave English.

There's no way to add a language selector in the game without source edit. Though you can change the language use in the game by editing server_strings.json in the server folder (Server\resources\server_strings.json), client_strings.json and credits.json (Client and Editor\resources\.)

You could also edit editor_strings.json  (Client and Editor\resources\.) but if you and your team (if you have one) understand english it's kinda a waste of time. Better using the time it would take to translate the editor making your game.

To ditto Gibier but add something additional:

If you have a translation, please share it so other people can use it.

One other thing is that right now a language selector would effectively be useless. You could change the UI, but you cannot change the server's strings, and you cannot change the language of the content. We have been looking into improving this but adding translatable content (the thing holding this back) is not an easy task.

I managed to translate it into my native language, but when I wanted to update it gave me errors because some lines changed, but it is possible depending on your language
