Issue with dialogue text in the *.d file

[lzw104522773]

Although this mod was not finalized, my friend still translated its text into Chinese. After conducting installation testing, I found that over 1000 lines of text were still in English. I checked the D file and found that they were all in the D file. Can we transfer them all to the tra file for translation convenience?

Also, is there a schedule for the final completion of this mod? thank you.

Thing is, the mod is not finished yet, it's in Early access, and it's easier to do the whole dialog file .tra-fication at one go, when the mod is ready for it, as it takes about a minute to transfer the files from a .d -files to a .tra -files.

Never mind, erhm that's not the reason.
The real reason why you see the English text in the .d files is that they are there for reference, but the important thing is, they are quoted out via /* -line starts  and */ -line ends. Which show what the text is, but the code itself doesn't read them when it's used.
The reason why the Chinece translation uses English as a secondary language is that the Chinece translation files don't have anything to put into their place, so as a backup, the mod install uses the English translation. Were it to be provided with additional references in the Chinice files, the English translation files wouldn't need to be used any longer. If the mod wouldn't use the English as a backup, it wouldn't be able to be installed at all because of the missing lines. It would just error out.

Also, the mod itself doesn't have a single official Chinese translation file in the repository, so .. but you can go here, and make a pull request.

What @Jarno Mikkola wrote is nonsense.

There is indeed still "hardcoded" d-files inside the mod, and they also might still change for v1. This is why I do not accept translations for BST yet.

No. "When it's done."
