[Suggestion] Change translation format to use lists
KaylaSolace opened this issue ยท 1 comments
Pain Point
The translation files use a different translation key per new line. this makes adding new lines require updating all other files, or using \n and sacrificing readability.
Suggestion
Add a feature to the translation function to allow using a list of strings where each entry is a new line. this would preserve readability in the translation files by allowing each list item to be displayed on a new line as well.
For example, "Bad news about the weather" I would like to change from:
Bad news about the weather
There is not much time left
You found the weather radar in the inventory.
It's connected to weather satellites in orbit.
Because you now have lost the communication with the satellite, now radar can only be used in &climited time&f. Unless you can find a ground base station to re-establish the link with the satellite. You remember them as &bwhite domed buildings&f.
Radar will forecast the weather for the next few days &bon the top of your screen&f
About a day later, a &bviolent cold current&b will approach the landing site.
Tempreture decreased a lot, a &cblizzard&f is incoming.
Until then, an &benclosed&f shelter must be found and built.
Your clothes won't protect you from the cold in a blizzard, so be sure to setup a &ecampfire&f.
to something more like
Bad News about the Weather
There is not much time left.
Inside the cabin lies a small weather radar.
Usually, it would be connected through your ship to a network of weather satellites in orbit,
and could receive forecasts about the weather from them.However, without the support of your ship it has lost communication with most of these satellites.
Without a full connection the radar can only be used for &short term&f forecasts,
unless you can find another way to re-establish a connection with the satellites.You remember earth having it's own weather outposts that were capable of providing this connection.
They looked a bit like like &bwhite dome-shaped buildings&f.For the time being, your radar will be able to display the weather forecast for the next few days &bat the top of your screen&f.
The forecast currently shows that in about a day's time, a &bviolent cold front&b will approach the crash site,
causing the temperature to decrease dramatically. A &cblizzard&f is incoming!To prepare yourself, an &benclosed&f shelter should be found or constructed.
Your spacesuit won't protect you from the cold in a blizzard, so be sure to create a &ecampfire&f to keep yourself warm.
Changes such as these are very impractical with the current system, as you can see I must add many new lines.
