If we want the sentence to be like the two others which are using "sets", we could write it like this:

"Sets the maximum number of civilizations that can be in play simultaneously during a game."

If a native speaker can confirm that it is possible to put the adverb simulatiously into the middle on the sentence then I agree, however in German it is difinatly:

"Setzt die Maximalanzahl der Zivilisationen, die gleichzeitig in einem Spiel sein können."

Martin,

sounds good. Ich glaube wir koennen den Titel so belassen.

For Tamerlin's suggestion:

Sounds a bit .........

But Let's wait for some other guys

I just saw that the German sentence could be improved there is a fixed term in German "im Spiel" so it looks like this:

"Setzt die Maximalanzahl der Zivilisationen, die gleichzeitig im Spiel sein können."

So now we need some comments from a native speaker about Tamerlins suggestion.

By the way Gilgamensch some feedback to improve your German, well I know someone from my uni he comes from Mexico and asked me to correct him so I am used to this a little bit : A Titel is rather a name of something for instance the name of a newpaper or PC game or a song. I would call it above rather a text or better don't think about it what in particular it is, so an "es" is enough for me.

Martin,

I first put 'es', but it was sounding a little bit a awkward. That's why I used Titel (even knowing it shall not be), Text would have been better, but the best would have been:



Ich glaube wir koennen den Satz so belassen

And by the way, Yes I know I start to forget my German and I am born and raised there

Because no native English speaker commented the last suggestion, my last suggestion is:

In English:

"Sets the maximum number of civilizations that can be in play during a game simultaneously."

In German:


"Setzt die Maximalanzahl der Zivilisationen, die gleichzeitig im Spiel sein können."

i want to translate the strings into italian but i need to know some things:
1) " Neptun World" is the same of "Flat World"? If the answer is yes why did you use Neptune?
2) In "Close Message When Clicking Eyeball" what is the "Eyeball"?
3) what is the string before "### New World Shape Strings ###"?

according to the first play test no.

a Neptune map connects at the bottom and top (not the east and west of a normal map).

The eyeball is at the bottem left and allows you to center the view onto the object connected with the message. Eyeball, because it is an eye in a ball (shall be the 'earth' I assume).

2) See explanation in previous post. The term "eyeball" is taken from the file tut_str.txt. It appears e.g. in the strings for TUT590_LOOK_FOR_CITIES and TUT561_3_GOAL_2 after the mark < c:0,180,0 >. I don't have the Italian version, so I can't verify it, but maybe this enables you to find the corresponding term in Italian.

3) Is this is str_ldl_Fuel_COLON, you may find a corresponding term in string TITLE_OUT_OF_GAS in tut_str.txt.

Sorry I haven't been paying attention to this thread, hope this isn't too late to be useful.

quote: "Sets the maximum number of civilizations that can be in play during a game simultaneously."

quote: "Sets the maximum number of civilizations that can be in play simultaneously during a game."

These seem to say there is a setting to let a selectable number of civs play simultaneous turns.

These would be best expressed as "Sets the maximum number of civilizations that can be in the game at the same time."

you could also say "...that can exist in the game at the same time"

quote: Originally posted by sandro 1) " Neptun World" is the same of "Flat World"? If the answer is yes why did you use Neptune?

Of course as already said it is not. There is no warping on a flat world and on a Neptune world there is North-Sourth warping instead of West-East warping. As far as I know Neptune is the only planet in our solar system which has a by 90° shifted rotation axis. And actual I had to give that option a nice name. Maybe I change it if I am wrong with Neptune here.

quote: Originally posted by sandro 3) what is the string before "### New World Shape Strings ###"?

You don't need to translate that string, it should be there maybe somewhere else in the same file or in another file.

quote: "Sets the maximum number of civilizations that can be in the game at the same time."

Well that comes closer to the German version, and I tought German strings are so much longer than English strings:

quote: "Setzt die Maximalanzahl der Zivilisationen, die gleichzeitig im Spiel sein können."

Well I think we can take it. So anymore opinions?

The French version of the setting text is already similar to drulius' suggestion, remember I had to shorten the French text as the translation was too long.

Some new strings to translate. I added two new strings so that the set goal dialog afterwards you set a goal from the Great Library is more accurate.

I added to strings to the ldl_str.txt in the ..\ctp2_data\XXXXXX\gamedata\ folder.

You can find the location in your ldl_str.txt if you search for one of these strings except for str_ldl_GreatLibraryGoalKnown and str_ldl_GreatLibraryNoGoalPossible.

# Great Library
str_ldl_GreatLibraryGoalSetTo "Goal set to: %s"
str_ldl_GreatLibraryGoalKnown "%s is already known. No goal was set."
str_ldl_GreatLibraryNoGoalPossible "%s cannot be researched."
str_ldl_SEARCH_WORD "Search:"
str_ldl_TECH_TREE "Tech Tree"
str_ldl_SET_GOAL "Set Goal"


Therefore the following strings need a translation:

str_ldl_GreatLibraryGoalKnown "%s is already known. No goal was set."
str_ldl_GreatLibraryNoGoalPossible "%s cannot be researched."

If you want to modify the ldl_str.txt from the altered source files thread than you can also search for these strings exactly in English, well and finally you don't need to post the file here just the stuff between the quotation marks, as I already have the according ldl_str.txt files. Well as long as you don't translate it into Spain, the Spanish version is still missing.

Just in time Tamerlin, otherwise it would be in the overnext version of the playtest version like the Italian version.

By the way I also included CityMod2 Great Libaries in German and English, if you have a Great Libary ready for Apolyton Pack that would be very helpfull.

Actual it is not such a big deal, basicly it just contains additions of CityMod2 and improvements in the way it is provides information and it also includes some fixes at least this is true for the German version. As Dale didn't provide us with the rest of the changes he made to the text files, these changes are at least not reflected in the German version.
