[0.15.22] Install mods UI not showing localized mod name

Post by Mooncat »

Bug:
The in-game install mods UI does not show the localized mod name and description.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Change Factorio language to Chinese (I have added Chinese translation only) and restart.
2) Go to Mods (模組) > Install mods (安裝MOD)
3) Search for "Faster Flame". See its name and description are still in English.

4) Install it (下載安裝) and restart (返回).
5) Go to Mods (模組). See its name and description are properly shown in Chinese.

Expected:
It should show the localized mod name and description, just like the Mods UI.
(And then the mod will be sorted on top of the others. Download count will be sky high... (evil)

Edit: but I have no idea how this should affect the search field. :?

Thanks for the report,

This isn't a bug, the download mods gui pulls the name directly from the info json on the mod portal,
When we improve the mod portal, i will look at some way to localise the data in this gui

I will see if it can be localised if you have it active, but it won't affect sort order
