Richard Feldman (Oct 29 2022 at 04:45):I like the idea of multilingual support for both, although basically the only thing I know about making software multi-language is that it's a huge amount of work and complexity :big_smile:
Richard Feldman (Oct 29 2022 at 04:46):so I wouldn't want to start on a project like that lightly!
Cai Bingjun (Oct 29 2022 at 05:17):I see
Anton (Oct 29 2022 at 06:21):A difficult aspect of multilingual support is keeping things up to date. Every change in an error message suddenly needs action from for example 4 additional people if we want to support 5 languages.
Cai Bingjun (Oct 29 2022 at 10:30):In fact, we can refer to Godot and use a third-party website to manage translation. If the English version is changed, it will directly replace all relevant translation content with English

Cai Bingjun (Oct 29 2022 at 10:34):Therefore, we should not worry too much about the translation itsself, the key is to support multilingual translation
