| Summary | 0003205: Translateable Ship/Wing names in missions | ||||
| Description | In missions it is possible to create ships with individual class names with the help of the $Alt entry. There is also a $callsign entry that is used as a message source. If you use the $Alt Name entry in the ships and weapons.tbl, you can create working translation of weapons and ships names, because $Name is still used for reference in the game. I actually would like to see such function in missions, too, so that you can translate the names of specific objects (waypoints as a favorite example) or wings in different languages without to create a specific version of the mission. | ||||
| Additional Information | Retail used some kind of similar function, because the Support ship is named differently in the several languages without to break events and missions that asks for a ship with the name 'Support'. Maybe this idea could also be used for some new SEXPs too, so that it would be possible to change the name of a ship during a mission without a script. (maybe with an -xstr extension like in the add-intel-xstr SEXP). | ||||
