Description

I am testing the Allies scenario with the release of 08Dec2024 to finish to proofreading of the fr translation and there is small problems :
I did this test on the recently latest version of the scenario.
All previous problems fixed by Xansta, I checked them and everything works fine.

i. The Back button is not present in

  • The Comms menu when recruiting a Repairer : "Repair crew member hired"
    This forces us to close the comms and then reopen them with the station.
  • Same thing when it comes to purchasing ammo.
  • Same thing in "I need information" menu (without being docked).

j. I didn't manage to find it when testing the scenario but I tell myself that this sentence "Where are you headed? (cost: %.1f reputation)" will also have 1 digit after the decimal point.

k. Despite my numerous tests, I have never managed to find the "Tell me about %s" menu. There are 6 characterInfo-comms texts that appear unused.

l. Mainscreen stats for neutral stations "Neutral stations: survived:%.1f%%" show a negative result (-1.0%) after one test. But I don't know in what condition it appeared because I retested by removing all the neutral stations and Kraylors and I had 0.0% displayed.

m. These 5 new translations do not appear on the Mainscreen:
Human stations: strength:%.1f%%
Arlenian stations: strength:%.1f%%
Kraylor stations: strength:%.1f%%
Exuari stations: strength:%.1f%%
Neutral stations: strength:%.1f%%

In what cases should they appear? Otherwise the rest of the stats appear well and work well (stations and strength) (except the -1.0%).

Do you want to keep the commas in the Mainscreen stats?

Research direction

Start with the Allies scenario and reproduce the listed Comms-menu Back-button cases, the missing characterInfo-comms text, and the Mainscreen station-stat behavior using the 08Dec2024 release. Compare the displayed strings with the five translations and check the reported negative neutral-station percentage; done means the menu navigation, text visibility, formatting, and stats behave as described.
