Translating tutorials?

Post by Allys »

How do you translate tutorials?
I don't see the option in https://boardgamearena.com/translationhq

Tutorials are there too. They are just always at the end of the translatable texts. Or search by 'tutorial' context.

Well for example "Lost Seas" : https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=lostseas
The tutorial is in English (should be in French for me), but I can't see any untranslated bits here: https://boardgamearena.com/translation? ... all&page=1

Ah yeah that's because the tutorial for Lost Seas is currently in Beta status. The tutorials become translatable only when they become official (Live status).

If you are in the player group of a game, you'll see a message on the main page if a tutorial becomes official for this game, then in the next 24 hours the strings will appear for translation. You can also check the status of any tutorial there: https://boardgamearena.com/tutoriallist ... n=allgames if you want.

Hmmm I'm still confused.
For example: "It's a Wonderful World". I don't think it's in beta, and some of the tutorial strings are not translated:

But I can't find them anywhere in the Translation tool :roll:

Bizarre, en effet, les libellés des boutons du haut n’apparaissent pas dans l’interface de traduction.
Par contre, ils ne sont pas en rapport avec le tutoriel, selon moi, mais sont bien des éléments du jeu.

Sans doute qu’ils n'ont pas été indiqués comme traduisibles dans le code du jeu. (À remonter en bug dans ce cas.)
Peut-être aussi que ces boutons existaient au moment de la création du tutoriel, mais ont disparu depuis.

I'll report it as a bug then. I'm not sure how to do it though: I either have the choice to select a specific table number (which I don't have), or indicate that it's a bug that concerns the BGA website and not a particular game. What should I do?

You should report for the game specifically, then you are sure the right developers will be able to see it.
You can pick any table number (of this game) you want, it has no matter.

In the message of the report, you can tell that the bug occurs for every matches, and link the screenshot you used in this forum thread.
