If you click the spoiler, as you can see I need to make it modular or I'll end up with a wall of text. Each map file is already over 1200 lines long.

Two things 1) I want to pass the map name, "cahute de Cadwell^fd" as an argument to a function and return the zone, subzone, and an index number. Then use string.format to end up with "coldharbor/coldharbour_base". The index would be that it was the 5th map name in the array. 2) Pass the zone, subzone, and the index and get the map name of any of the three languages thus ending up with a way to translate "cahute de Cadwell^fd" to "Cadwell's Hovel".
