Script message translation

[Mikk155]

Our scripts does use of external messages in a json file. so these can be translated and finally there's a script for choosing the language per-player. they can say "lang" on chat, it will open a menu showing all the supported languages.

So how does it works?

Skipping the programming talk.

• We allow players to select a language and store it to them.
• When a script wants to send a message to a player, it first checks for the choosen language and loads the proper one. if none found it sends "english"

This is a json example

    "PickMeMessage":
    {
        "english": "+use pickup $item$",
        "spanish": "+use recoger $item$"
    }

Normally arguments surrounded by the dollar sign ($) are replaced with something special in the script, for this example. $item$ is replaced with the name of the item from the script no_autopickup

Supported languages

    array<string> LanguageSupport =
    {
        "English",
        "Spanish",
        "Spanish Spain",
        "Portuguese",
        "German",
        "French",
        "Italian",
        "Esperanto",
        "Czech",
        "Dutch",
        "Indonesian",
        "Romanian",
        "Turkish",
        "Albanian"
    };

• More could be added.

Adding your language

Let's say you want to implement "Portuguese"
these have to be lower-case, as the code i previously sent is for only showing on the menu of the players

    "PickMeMessage":
    {
        "english": "+use pickup $item$",
        "portuguese": "+use coletar $item$",
        "spanish": "+use recoger $item$"
    }

• If you do so, feel free to do a pull request or send them to me and these will be updated.
