Structs:StringTable

The StringTable struct interacts with string tables that are set up with the LANGUAGE lump.

Methods

Static

• native String Localize(String val, bool prefixed = true)

Localizes the provided string val.

If prefixed is true, the code assumes that the $ character is already a part of the string (such as "$PICKUP_PISTOL_DROPPED"). If it's set to false, the $ character will be added into the string. Leave it at true if you don't know beforehand if the string you're localizing is an explicit string or a LANGUAGE reference.

Examples

This will pull the localized version of the Pistol's PickupMessage ("Picked up a Pistol" in English):

Console.PrintF(StringTable.Localize("$PICKUP_PISTOL_DROPPED");

This PickupMessage override, when inserted into an Inventory item, will print a formatted string, consisting of the item's regular PickupMessage, followed by an amount picked up in parentheses. For example, in case of a Clip, this would print: "Picked up a Clip (+10)":

override string PickupMessage()
{
	return String.Format("%s (+%d)", StringTable.Localize(pickupMsg), amount);
}
