Almost two years later, this has finally been acted upon (see FFF #363), though in the opposite direction...! No matter, as long as it's resolved

Mods - feel free to move to implemented suggestions.

If you want a rough estimate, you can try to extrapolate it! 1.0 was released on 2020-08-14 and the FFF was posted on 2020-10-09 -> which means 56 days. If they were ~50% done at the time of the FFF and assuming they're working with the same rate, it means an additional 56 days, which brings us roug...

Thanks for pointing it out, it can be hard to get these things right when you're working with a bunch of languages you don't speak :p

Sure thing, happy to help! I assure you - I understand neither Indonesian nor Bulgarian, I just happen to be familiar with their writing systems.

Whenever I wanted to test translations in the past, I would simply modify the .cfg files directly (and reload the game). Of course this is not very useful when you want to modify a large number of strings, but very convenient otherwise. Another alternative, for those who don't want to edit the origi...

BTW, this behavior is mentioned in the Spidertron Wiki page:

Ah, thanks for the clarification; not sure how I missed that. So basically, if the logic was: "cycle -> shoot" instead of "shoot -> cycle" it'd work with partially empty ammos slots too... Is this something that can be modded in?

If the spiders weapon is on a slot with no ammo, then it does not shoot. This is consistent with other vehicles and the character. When it shoots, it cycles to the next loaded weapon slot. Nothing here I would consider a bug, just different expectations of what 'auto-target' should do Are you sayin...

it doesn't make sense to list all the numbers from 11-99 (ends in 11,ends in 12 ..., ends in 99) every time I translate plurals. Wow, I hadn't realized what a nightmare this was in Arabic. Honestly, I'm very doubtful that other languages go through the trouble of encoding every possibility correctl...

You're talking about "Tips and Tricks", right? I think this is a known issue.

What happens with other named entities, like radars and train stations?

It might be that this works as intended and your post is actually a "feature request".

Possible dupe: viewtopic.php?f=23&t=87915

I suggest changing the title to "Spidertron legs made longer by belts" or something like that.

Didn't test it myself, but I think the issue is that spidertron doesn't fire unless ammo slots are filled from left to right (i.e. if there's no ammo in the leftmost slot, it is treated as no ammo available at all and therefore doesn't fire). I saw this happen in Nilaus' video starting 3:29: https:/...

the new graphics look really nice. However, I noticed that on the technology icon of the logistic 1 research, the underground-belt on the top right faces the wrong way. On the logistics 2,3 icon, it is correct. This must be intentional Easter Egg. It signifies that when you research logistic 1, you...

Considering that their proofreading was supposed to hit Crowdin, and nothing has happened on Crowdin in that regard, we might get an update on that topic in the next FFF. Looking forward to it. And even more so looking forward to their corrections to the locales.

The FFF mentioned that proofreading of the "target languages" started recently. What exactly are these target languages? Perhaps this means the Target Languages list on the Altagram website? If so, it includes: Arabic Bulgarian Catalan Chinese (Simplified/Traditional) Croatian Czech Danis...

I reviewed this in 18.35 and while Indonesian is fixed, the issue with Bulgarian still remains (the language name doesn't start with a capital letter).

Seems that the texts on load screen are not translated anymore. (Tested for German and Russian) This is to be expected in Experimental builds , especially ones that update >500 strings, such as this update. As a matter of fact, the diligent translators of RU and DE already updated all the strings f...

Changes

• Full English text proofreading and corrections.

This begs the question: when is the hand off of the proofreading planned?
