This is a demo of how a project can be internationalized. Translations are
|
|
|
|
|
|
created in a CSV file and then imported into Godot.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For correct display, the font used must contain the glyphs required by the
|
|
|
|
|
|
target language. See the `fonts` folder for some fonts that you can use in your
|
|
|
|
|
|
project. Godot can load system fonts as a fallback, but this is not supported on
|
|
|
|
|
|
all platforms and the different visual design of system fonts can create
|
|
|
|
|
|
inconsistencies.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Godot allows internationalized text to change automatically when the locale is
|
|
|
|
|
|
modified. Resources can also be set to internationalized alternatives and replaced
|
|
|
|
|
|
automatically on locale change. This process is known as *remapping*.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Both CSV and gettext (PO/POT) approaches are showcased. Use the button in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
bottom-right corner to switch between the two approaches.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The resouce remapping process with PO is the same with CSV. The in-game text translation
|
|
|
|
|
|
process is also the same – use keys to fetch the appropriate translation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The main difference between PO files and CSV files is the way both of them store
|
|
|
|
|
|
the translated data in their files. Have a look at the `translations/po`
|
|
|
|
|
|
and `translations/csv` folders to see the files involved.
