Rephrased some stuff in the plugin's translation.txt file.

Added Spanish translation.

@disawar1
Also maybe this is only on my server, but every time a tank spawns, 2 Tanks are created (Total 2 Tanks at the same time).

Plugin bug:

In finale, if you pass the tank to a teammate, this counts as a progress for survivor teams and shortly after another tank spawns. Finale such as dark carnival progresses upon tank pass. Game breaking, please look into it

Request:

Can you add optional feature which allows us to vote who gets the next tank?

Such as if there is a tank spawn on the map, a menu should pop up when survivors leaves the saferoom to vote the tank player.

Bug were fixed in v2.2. Read notes.
I'm going to release the Tank vote plugin next week. I need to update the syntax and do other work.

I use SDK Calls only when you confirm pass menu. Look for the problem elsewhere.

That only blocks the command, doesn't fix the bug. It would be nice to be able to pass the tank in finale as well, without that bug. However, another solution to this could be the vote tank plugin. Some ideas: Make the vote menu show up in finale once survivor leaves the saferoom or once the finale stage begins and another time menu showing up when the first tank dies so the team can vote the 2nd finale tank and so on.
