How to create your own translation

  1. Click on Settings > Open save place
  2. Navigate into the translations folder
  3. Copy the translation.eng.xml file to a place of your liking
  4. Open translation.eng.xml in a editor of your choice
  5. Replace the values with the ones you want to have
    1. the word Custom in "<name>Custom</name>" is the name that will be shown in the program
  6. Rename the file to something unique, but keep the name pattern.
    1. the middle part is used by the program to determine the used setting, so make sure it stays unique with other designs

How to share your translation

This might change in the future, i have yet to collect experience, what the best way is on itch.io

Please stay in line with the ToS and Community Guidelines of itch.io! This is a page for 13+ year olds. I don't want to see here anything, which is not suited for a 13 year old!

  1. Create a new Thread with a title, that tells others what to expect from your translation
  2. Post the file content there (to my knowledge no file upload is possible here)

How to install a translation

  1. Create a new file with the name pattern "translation.name.xml"
    1. the middle part is used by the program to determine the used setting, so make sure it stays unique with other designs
  2. Open the file in a editor of your choice
  3. Paste the posted content there and save it
  4. Start the game, when it is not running yet
  5. Click on Settings > Language> Add language file
