(r439508) suggestions for more appropriate terminology

[RogerLeBanni]

Hi,

I've just finished 1 Sal's run, a lot more of Rook's runs (harder...) and the Smith's first part. Great job so far for the french version !

But I think these changes will suit better for gameplay mecanism understanding :

 

"original translation" -> "suggested translation"

"greffe" -> "implant" (huge change for a more futuristic background, common term in SF)

"créneau de greffe" -> "emplacement d'implant" (first trans is pretty much nonsense IMHO)

"débourser" -> "écarter" (cards terminology, first trans is pretty much nonsense here)

"détermination" -> "volonté" (negotiation "HP" terminology, shorter and less confusing)

"éliminer / supprimer" -> "défausser" (cards terminology, extremely common in real ECGs)

"gagne 4 x Défense / gagne 1 x Combo" -> "gagne 4 Défense / gagne 1 Combo" (getting rid of the "x" in general for easier cards effects reading)

"inflige 3 de dégât" -> "inflige 3 dégât(s)" (the same here with plural form alt)

 

I've made these changes myself for consistency (especially during dialogues) and ingame tests and it's really more comfy ^^

Who's in charge for the french translation ? Is there a repository somewhere in order to suggest modifications ?

Some more suggested fixes after few plays :

 

• Missing gender oriented description in CHARACTERS part. You have to add a "1" prefix before "gender" to avoid display bug during dialogues, like this :

Quote

#. CHARACTER.BARTENDER.TITLE
msgctxt "CHARACTER.BARTENDER.TITLE"
msgid "Bartender"
msgstr "{1.gender:Barman|Barmaid}"

• You need to fix the {CONSOMMER} variable with {CONSUME} instead (I saw this on an 2 cost upgraded Rook's basic attack card).
• Some {baron.gender:xxxxx|xxxx} are displayed ingame. You can fix this by replacing "baron" by "agent" : {agent.gender:xxxx|xxxx}. It will works.
• Some dialogues boxes display {saler.gender} ingame. Fix this by replacing "saler" by "seller" : {seller.gender}.

 

All of those fixes have been tested and aproved.
