foreign language support for Blockland

[mus]

why isn't there this yet? and if there is, why isn't it default? because opening up the game to foreign people would probably increase sales.
i know nothing about coding, but if someone could help me, i would start working on an add-on for it

It'd be cool
But I wonder how exactly the print letters would be changed to say, Cyrillic characters and somehow in a server have them be different to one Russian player and one English player unless this was a client add-on or something
If it was possible

We could totally do this community-side if Badspot doesn't want to make it default. I mean, it's going to be somewhat necessary now we're on steam and getting a ton of new users. I'd be totally willing to translate to Dutch because for some reason there's an oddly large number of Dutch people playing this game in comparison to the size of the Netherlands.

doesn't blockland essentials have this? someone should do a surgical procedure on it to take just the translation thing from it and use that

[dargereldren]

Blockland is based on TGE 1.3 which only handles the ASCII character set.  TGE 1.4 added unicode support but it would be a significant amount of work to port over. 

UPDATE:

that would make me insane

[ZSNO]

Only a few languages would work, as in ones that don't use Unicode.

There has been. Bbl or something did it with german and a Portuguese

seems like everything "would take a lot of work" recently. I guess it's an easy way to blow things off.

[Mister Cheese]

Honestly it doesn't sound like it would be too bad to port over some Latin character languages. Wouldn't be too hard right?

You seem like the worlds laziest person.

What? Heedicalking has so many projects that he does. These includes builds and modeling vehicles and weapons(I think). He is definitely not lazy.

Also, I think you interpreted his post wrong.

he also made a terrain generator. which seems like it takes a lot more work than adding support for new languages.
