The Curious Expedition by Maschinen-Mensch

==== Setting up new language ====

	All the community translations are featured on our crowdin page. To 
	contribute go here:

	  - https://crowdin.com/project/the-curious-expedition

	To test a translation download it and put it inside of a folder named after 
	the proper language code as listed here:

	  - https://support.crowdin.com/api/language-codes/

	Once you've done this, you should be able to select it in the game using the 
	settings screen.
	
	== Language syntax ==

	There are certain types of special characters:

		- $name will be replaced by the name of a person that is relevant in 
		that event. Not all events have relevant persons, so you should only use 
		the $name identifier if the original text already included the name.

		- {mmm|fff} will be replaced by 'mmm' if the relevant person is male, or 
		'fff' if the relevant person is female. As mentioned above, there might 
		not always be a relevant person, so use it only if appropriate.

		- Each language may define its own special strings. Those are stated 
		with the @vars line entry. They start with $ and have a similar syntax 
		to the {} braces. For example the entry '$he=he|she' makes it so that 
		$he in the text will be replaced by 'he' if the relevant person is 
		male, or 'she' if the relevant person is female.

		- [xxx|yyy|zzz] will be randomly replaced by either 'xxx' or 'yyy' 
		or 'zzz'.

		- [xxx] will be randomly replaced by 'xxx' or not appear in the text 
		at all.

		- _text_ will be shown as emphasized in game (colored red).

	== Sharing and Collaborating ==

	In case that you want to share your translation with the world, please use 
	the crowdin page instead of modifying the file directly. On the site you 
	will also find additinonal context information for how to translate specific 
	lines.

	There is also a translation board in the Maschinen-Mensch forums.

	  - http://forums.maschinen-mensch.com/viewforum.php?f=9

	For specific translation issues it might be more appropriate to use the 
	crowdin internal forum here:

==== Troubleshooting Tips ====

  == General Notes ==

  If you run into any problems with the game please let us know via email to:

  	support@curious-expedition.com

  You may also use the Maschinen-Mensch forums here:

  Please provide the version number with your bug report (visible in bottom 
  left) of the main screen. In case of stability issues please also write which
  OS you are using. In most cases screenshots are very useful as well.

  == Archlinux ==

  The packaged electron often may not be able to find libraries it depends on.
  In that case install a new version of electron (pacman -Sy electron) and run
  
    cd ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/The\ Curious\ Expedition/
    electron resources/app.asar
