I was complaining about this before here I am again. I really don't appreciate random people going and changing English strings
in my games without knowing the context and that got some-how auto-approved without me even knowing...
Happened before and happened again, I just received a bug with new published game about incorrect tooltip, look at code its correct!
Hey somebody decided to go and change 3 to 2 in the text! And now its in the game and all translatable strings!
And posting on translators forum had no effect before.
So I have some request regarding this for admins:
- Have a way to comment on original string to explain what context it appears in, I can comment on translation now but not on orginal
Have this comment show up near the string for translators
- If English string is changed do not commit it unless game developers or admin approve the change, personally I don't think it should be allowed in a first place but if happens at least I need to know somebody wants to change it. Changes in English strings has severe effect not only on interface of the game in english, but it also it immediately propagate itself to other languages, because translation "keys" are based on "someone's else" English translation not on the original for some reason
Please, please, pretty please!
