Some translation keys possibly not read

[weidengeist]

Hi @spajus,

I have noticed three keys in the translation files that are not used although they are present: comfortable.work.spot, slept.in.unfamiliar.bed, and socialized.with. The game uses the English terms instead.

Same problem with nav.fail.being.immobilized

@weidengeist how did you figure those keys are not used? slept.in.unfamiliar.bed is surely used as a mood effect label, checked in code just now. All of these should be used, and all of them are mood effects. You can find them in game if you click on colonist, then on mood in top-left ui.

@spajus I saw it just yesterday in a stream on Twitch. The player had the most recent version and showed the current changelog in the beginning.

I have just taken a look into one of my own games and at least for socialized.with I can say that it is translated correctly. I will keep an eye out for the other keys mentioned above.

Could it be related to the Twitch streamer’s save file that it is not translated?

Edit: Can confirm slept.in.unfamiliar.bed now as well. Translated as expected.

[spajus]

Yes, it is definitely going to be the save file keeping previous mood effect title. Translations are often cached in game state, since there would be a performance penalty to always translate everything.

Thank you very much for your answer. I will tell the Twitch streamer about that. I don’t consider it an issue that has to be resolved, because it will not matter in the final version when new games are created and the translations are complete.

There is a "clear history" button in the colonist mood list, that will keep only currently happening events, and those old translations will be wiped.
