Localizing allowed_values without duplicating entries in the *.cfg file
Posted: Sun Feb 28, 2021 3:09 am
There is a series of drop-down lists in my mod settings, each containing the same allowed_values.
I know I can do localize them like this:
but this way the file is almost entirely duplicates.
In this example I have 42 lines in the *.cfg file but really there is only 7 unique strings.
How can I assign arbitrary localized strings to drop-down entries, in similar way to how I can do that for setting name using the localised_name?
I know I can do localize them like this:
Code: Select all
[string-mod-setting]
my-mod-setting1-value1=Locale 1
my-mod-setting1-value2=Locale 2
# more values... (imagine 4 more lines here)
my-mod-setting1-value7=Locale 7
my-mod-setting2-value1=Locale 1
my-mod-setting2-value2=Locale 2
# more values... (imagine 4 more lines here)
my-mod-setting2-value7=Locale 7
# more settings (imagine 21 more lines here)
my-mod-setting6-value1=Locale 1
my-mod-setting6-value2=Locale 2
# more values... (imagine 4 more lines here)
my-mod-setting6-value7=Locale 7
