we will release the 0.2.7 version this evening.
It will have full Russian + German, It would be awesome if the French translation was upgraded too, so please, post your work here even if it is not complete.

It will probably be done on Sunday, as I'll have a lot of time this week end to do it. The problem for "our work" is, there is nothing more done for now, sorry :/

For french readers :
Je jetais un ptit coup d'oeil aux traductions et :

logistic-chest-storage=Coffre de stockage (?)
logistic-chest-requester=Chest requester (traduction à trouver) : Coffre recepteur ? En tchèque, la trad est coffre d'admission (ou quelque chose du genre) Reste à trouver quelquechose qui s'en approche en français, sans entacher sa fonction...

Sorry guys, i'm working on the french version and i'm blocked on the chest requester, so i ask other opinions.

[French Version]
"logistic-chest-storage=Coffre de stockage (?)" --> C'est ma traduction c'est cela ? Je savais même pas à quoi ça correspondait dans le jeu xD. C'est une technologie je suppose ? J'édite ça chez moi ce WE, j'uploaderais la traduction totale dimanche quand je serais rentré ... En attendant, édite si tu le souhaite

English version: *quote without using the forum function* --> Is is my own translation ? I didn't even know what was that thing in the game ^^. I guess it's a technology ? I'm going to edit that this week end, then I'll upload the whole translated file Sunday when I'll be back ... for now, feel free to do it by yourself if you want

French version

Non, c'est celle d'en dessous qui me bloque. L'autre, c'est une idée de traduction. Et non, ce sont des objets pas des technologies (Mais tu n'etais pas loin)

J'edite les autres parties pour mon gameplay, ne t'inquetes pas. J'ai fini les tips, inutile de t'embeter dessus (a moins de relire et de trouver une faute ou une autre traduction) et je continue la campagne de la demo.

English version :

No, it is that below who block me. The other is an idea of ​​translation. And no, they are not technology 'subject (But you were not far)

I edited the other parts of my gameplay, dont worry. I finished the tips, needless to annoy you over (unless to read and find fault or another translation) and I continue the campaign demo.

Ok lol, mais de toute façon si tu veux je peux le faire ce week end, j'aurais probablement pas grand chose à faire ... m'enfin bon comme tu veux.

Euh ben dans ce cas ... le problême vois tu, c'est que coffre de stockage, c'est un peu pléonasmique ^^.

English version: Nothing very useful, since it was just kind of a private discussion ... we're just talking about the fact traducing a word by "storage chest" in french, would seems a bit redundant.

Effectivement ! J'avais completement zappé cet aspect ! C'est nul comme truc en fait maintenant

Translation fail.

I've made a few more yesterday. I'm uploading it right now, but I saw some changes on the version I didn't know, so it won't be fully completed.

http://www.mediafire.com/?0xhh7ytb3773b7x

I made one folder with, it seems to me, explicit names. Almost everything has been a bit changed (but not every single file), so I think you can just replace all ^^

TO NOTICE: Due to some grammar rules in french, I wasn't able to translate correctly parts of your "code" refering to the locale file. (I mean, in french, steam engines is translated by "machineS à vapeur", and you see that s would be IN the __something__ thingy, so ... ) --> I hope it won't be annoying, but I just replaced these words with the correspundant translation. (so I also replaced __ENTITY__steam__engine__s by "machines à vapeur").

We plan the next release on friday 22.2, so no need to rush now.

Little question: do you expect anything special in the game ? I mean, comments could be a bit ironic/funny, or creating some kind of atmosphere for the game ... (hope this word can be used with the same meaning he has in french ^^).
Or do you just expect instructions and everything to be very clear, and nothing else, as it is for now ?

This is really hard question, all this is happening way to fast.
What would we actually love to do later, is to get someone, who would rewrite all the texts completely (writer) in the first place (in English), and then do the translation of the texts again.

To answer this question, if you make it ironic and funny it is welcome.

Why not "bras méchanique" instead of "bras robotique" ? Having robotic technology with a coal inserter... funny
French : (Il faut mettre robotique à partir du smart inserter !)

Okay. It will be done next time I'll edit it
(Am I allow to replace "kill aliens" with "try to hug them" ? ^^ Nope, I'm kidding, in case of some would be stupid enough to believe it's true ^^)

Moi qui avais commencé une traduction, tout mon travail tombe à l'eau =p

Np lol, tu peux encore comparer les deux, vérifier la mienne et me dire ce que tu pense qui devrait être modifié. Et tu pourras aussi bosser sur les updates

Merci à ceux qui bossent sur la traduction VF

What about using english, so devs, looking for (if there is some) question can understand ? ^^
And Wazzebu, you know, that's almost nothing ^^. It took me 4 hours to translate almost everything, counting the fact I translated 2 times some files, due to mistake on my side/releases.

On the other forum there are also using their mother tongue... So do not worry about that, but I would strongly recommend you to make some short sum up in English each time...

Or you could save some time by typing in another color when it is in french... Just try to be inventive to help the developer's work !!!

Un peu comme ça :p

I added this to the game, but something is not complete ...

What ? A part from lvl 1 demo and trips and ticks (because one said he already did that) and things from 0.27/0.28 updates. If there something else, please tell me
I think I'll complete it on next version.
