Hi all
I am working on a full review off the French translation of Kenshi.
Doing that, I run into some issues that should be taken into account for the version 2 .
1 - When translating, some English words could have different meanings in French. So as possible, even if it requires more translation, each English text should have a corresponding translation in pot file, avoiding the reuse of these words.
2 - Location on the map should have some specific translation. In French, when you talk about a place, it's not in the same way as you write it on a map. Exemple : Ruins - in English you could use it on the map as in text 'Ruins' - 'You discovered some Ruins' in French 'Ruines' vous avez découvert des ruines' . The bold parts could be reused for each location but 'Ruines' and 'des ruines' must be different translations.
3 - Debugging in game is a really boring task as you need to permanently switch between game and translation file. So it would be a very good point to have a specific game mod or editor that allows in game translation correction.
4 - Spelling task is also a boring task. Allowing to export / import the full translation would be very great.
OK, I am stupid for this one, I found the translation ...
Regards
Translation of Kenshi V2
