Trasnlation Question
 
I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if it is supposed to be like this, but checking against the google translater it doesn't look like those ^f and ^n characters are supposed to be on the end of the strings.
Do you have to zo_strformat it too somehow?


This is what some of the code looks like:
Lua Code:
  1. name = GetString(SI_ITEMTYPE1), -- "[eng] Weapon", -- SI_ITEMTYPE1
  2. name = GetString(SI_ITEMTYPE44),    -- "[eng] Style Material", -- SI_ITEMTYPE44
  3. name = GetString(SI_ITEMTYPE45),    -- "[eng] Armor Trait", -- SI_ITEMTYPE45
  4. name = GetString(SI_ITEMTYPE46),    -- "[eng] Weapon Trait", -- SI_ITEMTYPE46

No, characters ^??? should not be at the end of german words. They are here just to help with localization - they indicates if the word is singular or plural and if it is masculine/femine/neuter gender:

You can use for example:
Lua Code:
  1. name = zo_strformat(SI_ITEMTYPE1)
  2. name = zo_strformat(GetString("SI_ITEMTYPE", itemType))

I already tried those, unless I am missing something, they didn't work either:

Hm, you are right, it seems that zo_strformat without pattern work just for strings like "<<player{male/female}>>", it doesn't remove control characters from strings. You will have to use some pattern like "<<1>>" (just remove control characters), <<t:1>> (capitalize first letter of each word) or "<<C:1>>" (capitalize first letter of the first word).

Lua Code:
  1. name = zo_strformat(SI_TOOLTIP_ITEM_NAME, GetString(SI_ITEMTYPE1))
  2. name = zo_strformat("<<t:1>>", GetString("SI_ITEMTYPE", itemType))
