[Plugin] Eneroth Railroad System (v 0.1.21)

[eneroth3]

The work of manually translating would be lost in some week or so. Unless the text strings are separated from the code there's not really any idea doing it. However I'm not really sure of what to do since user created content (including track types shipped with the extension) would just be in the user's language unless the user translates it themselves to all languages.

Randomly mixed languages is just annoying and one of the reasons I really hate it when websites and softwares tries to make Swedish translations.

However, if anyone is really keen to translate you could make a spreadsheet (like in excel) with the original string and translation next to each other.

Of course yes, but without the "*" it's a nightmare for a totally noob of Ruby for pick exactly that is must be translated or not!

Hi

Is it the same for all dialogs or just this one?

Thanks!

Here's some more screen shots of the other dialog boxes.

It looks as if the javascript code in dialog.show_modal doesn't run on that specific web dialog, probably due to a misspelling in the code. Hopefully there's no problem with the other dialogs

French translation of the Documentation is done!

I will see now if the new version 1.1.0 has a new documenttion!

I don't understand much French so I can't say much about the translation but I did notice you have capital letters where there shouldn't be in the motion types of the mechanical parts in rolling stocks. Unless these (and all other text the user writes) is spelled correctly the computer won't understand it.

[pilou]

Can you give me an example and addresse page?
For correction if necessary

I don't know if you changed the capital letter because now I can't find them but the Create Rolling stock page mentions an attribute called "rayon" that doesn't exist in the plugin. Also there are no headers in the text except for in a few random places so it's quite hard to see what text belongs to what.

[pilou]

Effectivelly I had changed some capitals

yes it's all the difficulty of translation!
What translate or not!

So imagine in the Ruby code Text!

"radius" and all few little things corrected

This is very mysterious for me!
Have you an example of that ? Or a Copy screen ?

"Les pièces en mouvement" is a little bigegr than normal text and has the same color even though it is a second level header. "Toutes les pièces mécaniques" looks the same even though it's a third level header. "translation_circular" is also a third level header but it's white unlike all other text.

is a translation of the plugin realy important?. ok the manual in other languages is ok.

pilou i would understand your wish, if eneroth to have written the plugin in swedish.

i think this is not the main problem.

my native language is german, and i don´t ask about any translations.
the common denominator is english i think.

will you let play your kids with this plugin?

i must say in don´t missing german in this plugin.

best regards to a wonderful france. i watching in ARTE(TV)any documentaions about france.

dean from berlin

p.s.

pilou the same i have written to eneroth.

If there is a translation it has to be 100% correct and not fool the user into problems with the plugin. However I don't see a very big need for it. Learning English, today's lingua franca, is a long term solution that is also very beneficial in other situations throughout life.

translation is on part, the translator must understand the subject,too.
i need only a translation, if the subject will be very difficult to understand.

difficult for me is the way to setup the rolling stock like the flying scotman.

That's also the part hardest to translate because if anything is not 100% perfect it will go wrong and not work. I might some day look into the docs and try to make it easier to understand with more images, perhaps even videos of certain steps. Perhaps there will even be a graphical interface in the distant future to initialize the moving parts more easily.

[deaneau]

yes, one movie or picture tell more than thousand words.

Some Titles corrections You are very strict!

As the page text is some long, reader has forgotten the level of reading and me too!
