Translate dialog in other files

[neometalero]

I have a problem with the translation system. It works just fine for the dialog and text on "script. rpy" but I have dialog in other files that it doesn't recognise when creating the translated string. How can I manually indicate the translation of this text?

How are you declaring the text?

If it is in .rpy files and wrapped in _() the translation system should pick it up when generating translations

For example:

arg.rpy

Code: Select all

default novar = "no bob"
default argvar = _("bob")

init python:

    pynovar = "py no bob"
    pyargvar = _("py bob") 

Generate Translations >>

tl/de/arg.rpy

Code: Select all

translate de strings:

    # game/arg.rpy:2
    old "bob"
    new "bob"

    # game/arg.rpy:7
    old "py bob"
    new "py bob"

Note how it has skipped all those not enclosed by the _() symbols
