Hello. How can i add a translation to this code ? I know how to do it for PrintToClient but i can't figure it for printrtochatall.

#pragma semicolon 1

#include <sourcemod>
#include <sdktools>
#include <colors>

new bool:g_bIsTankAlive;

public Plugin:myinfo = 
{
	name = "L4D2 Tank Announcer",
	author = "Visor",
	description = "Announce in chat and via a sound when a Tank has spawned",
	version = "1.1.2",
	url = "https://github.com/SirPlease/L4D2-Competitive-Rework"
};

public OnMapStart()
{
	PrecacheSound("ui/pickup_secret01.wav");
}

public OnPluginStart()
{
	HookEvent("tank_spawn", EventHook:TankSpawnEvent, EventHookMode_PostNoCopy);
	HookEvent("round_start", EventHook:RoundStartEvent, EventHookMode_PostNoCopy);
}

public RoundStartEvent()
{
	g_bIsTankAlive = false;
}

public TankSpawnEvent()
{
	if (!g_bIsTankAlive)
	{
		g_bIsTankAlive = true;
		CPrintToChatAll("{red}[{default}!{red}] {olive}Tank {default}has spawned!");
		EmitSoundToAll("ui/pickup_secret01.wav");
	}
}

Hey there. Translations are easy to work with! Here is your code, NOT TESTED YET!

Here are the lines I have modified:

PHP Code:

#pragma semicolon 1

#include <sourcemod>
#include <sdktools>
#include <colors>

new bool:g_bIsTankAlive;

public Plugin:myinfo = 
{
    name = "L4D2 Tank Announcer",
    author = "Visor",
    description = "Announce in chat and via a sound when a Tank has spawned",
    version = "1.1.2",
    url = "https://github.com/SirPlease/L4D2-Competitive-Rework"
};

public OnMapStart()
{
    PrecacheSound("ui/pickup_secret01.wav");
        //We need to know where our translations are, therefore let's specify a file
    LoadTranslations("mytranslations.txt");
}

public OnPluginStart()
{
    HookEvent("tank_spawn", EventHook:TankSpawnEvent, EventHookMode_PostNoCopy);
    HookEvent("round_start", EventHook:RoundStartEvent, EventHookMode_PostNoCopy);
}

public RoundStartEvent()
{
    g_bIsTankAlive = false;
}

public TankSpawnEvent()
{
    if (!g_bIsTankAlive)
    {
        g_bIsTankAlive = true;
        CPrintToChatAll("{red}[{default}!{red}] {olive}%T", "Translation1");
        EmitSoundToAll("ui/pickup_secret01.wav");
    }
} 


Now we need to list everything on our translations file. I added some languages, you can add as many as you want!:

"Phrases"
{
  "Translation1"
  {
    "en"    "Tank {default}has spawned!"
    "pt"	"Um tanque {default}spawnou!"
    "es"	"El tanque {default}ha engendrado"
    "fr"	"Le réservoir {default}a engendré"
    "de"	"Panzer {default}hat gelaicht"
  }
}

Also if you want to read more about this topic and how to use variables in translations, please mind reading this topic created by SourceMod -> https://wiki.alliedmods.net/Translat...g)#File_Format

Also I'd recommend starting using new syntax and a recent compiler version. If you use SPEdit, most likely your includes are outdated. You can update them or just download the latest version of sourcemod for your operating system and drag the .sp file to the compile.exe / compile.sh.

Best Regards,

Thank you but this is not working, as i said PrintToChatAll translating seems to be broken or not working the same way.

I think you need to add the LoadTranslations to OnPluginStart, not OnMapStart. Also, I am not entirely sure if CPrintToChatAll has as good functionality for translations, you might have to do a for loop and format a translation phrase per-client and use:

PHP Code:

Format(szFormatTranslation, sizeof(szFormatTranslation), "{red}[{default}!{red}] {olive}%T", "Translation1", client);
CPrintToChat(client, szFormatTranslation);
OR
CPrintToChat(client, "%s", szFormatTranslation); 


There are different effects when you do a direct print of the buffer, and printing the %s of a buffer. It is possible that the color codes won't be parsed if you do it one way. I believe the correct parsing of the color tags is by just the buffer, but you might have to test it.

It is also good to mention that %T requires the client added after the phrase, then parameters, whereas %t will do it for the client, but might not work in this particular situation.
An example from MapChooser for %t:

PHP Code:

PrintToChatAll("[SM] %t", "Nextmap Voting Started");

My bad, I was tired and when I saw 'On' my brain instantly thought it was OnPluginStart. Even tho, I think our examples work, LoadTranslations just need to be at the plugin start. Also if I am not mistaken, %t must be used when it is a direct "chat connection", which means we can use %t on PrintToChat, PrintToChatAll, etc. When we use Format, it is not a direct "chat connection", therefore we need %T

[MAGNAT2645]

If there is SetGlobalTransTarget (or g_SourceMod.SetGlobalTarget in C++ version) in function, you can use %t otherwise use %T (with this one you also need to specify client to determine translation language)

PrintToChat( client, "%t", "MY_PHRASE" );
PrintToChatAll( "%t", "MY_PHRASE" );

char szText[64];
FormatEx( szText, sizeof szText, "%T", "MY_PHRASE", client );
// or
SetGlobalTransTarget( client );
FormatEx( szText, sizeof szText, "%t", "MY_PHRASE" );

Hmmm makes sense. I did look know to SourceMod translations post and you're completely right!

[JLmelenchon]

What will look like the code ? Tried different thing and can't make it work.
