Hi gross,

Tonight I will send you the files for an Italian translation, and I will send Quax the files for a German translation. Pavel, are you interested in doing a Spanish translation? And Jager - Finnish?

Here is the list of translators:

Dore: French
gross: Italian
Quax: German
Pavel: Spanish??
Jager: Finnish??

Cheers,
4Shades

Language packs sent. I have already got PA_Dore's "Francais" language pack back. This is nice!

Cheers,

Pavel: Spanish??

Of course, you don't have to ask, just send it to me.

S!

[IV/JG7_4Shades]

Wow, everyone is being quick. Quax has finished his German language pack too.

Thanks Pavel, much appreciated. Paddington and Jager are on the Finnish translation, and Gross is on the Italian translation ... Anyone else interested in other languages, Cmirko?

Cheers,

would not really be a problem for me to do the translation to Serbo-Croatian - although i really don't see the point of it - most of my squad understands english well enough and i don't know of any other group from former yugoslavia which would benefit from the translation

still, why not ? send me the files to my email and i'll try to translate them by the end of week....

S!

[Jager]

Ok,finnish translation on the move,first version sended to Paddington yesterday.Hopefully he has some time to check it out and to correct my mistakes...

Do you like the new "rank" column?

[IV/JG7_4Shades]

I like it.

It is also nice to see that an Allied "GAZ Truck + 4x7.62mm" actually deserted at the end of the last mission.

Cheers,

As we have been translating the finnish version i had an idea with "pilot rating" word.

Would it be possible to add more options to "ratings" as now it has just 4 ratings?
Now:

• Rookie
  Average
  Veteran
  Ace

After:

• Private =Rookie
  Corporal
  Sergeant =Average
  2nd Lieutenant
  Lieutenant =Veteran
  Captain
  Major =Ace
  Colonel

Some Finnish Airforce ranks...
*= what we tried in translation.

Or would it be possible to Campaign Host or Commander to give pilots a rank somehow, this could be an optional option if you wanted to use it?

[IV/JG7_4Shades]

Hi Jager,

The Pilot Rating is governed by the following function in Statistics/stats_functions.php:

Code: Select all

//Algorithm for the pilot rating.
function Pilot_Rating($Sorties,$AK,$SK,$IK,$KIAMIA) {
 	extract($GLOBALS);
 
 	if ($Sorties < 3) {return LL($L->screen->PilotDetails->skill0);}
 
 
 	$simpleRating = Floor((3*$AK+$SK+$IK)/$Sorties - $KIAMIA);
 
 	if ($simpleRating < 0) {
 		return LL($L->screen->PilotDetails->skill0);
 	}
 	else if ($simpleRating == 0) {
 		return LL($L->screen->PilotDetails->skill1);
 	}
 	else if ($simpleRating == 1) {
 		return LL($L->screen->PilotDetails->skill2);
	}
 	else if ($simpleRating >= 2 && ($AK > 5 || $SK+$IK > 15)) {
 		return LL($L->screen->PilotDetails->skill3);
 	}
 	else {
 		return LL($L->screen->PilotDetails->skill2);
 	}
 
 	return LL($L->screen->PilotDetails->skill0);
 
}

The $LL object used above is the XML object that contains the UTF8 language data for the Statistics Language selected (in the impending MP release). So you can see that you can define ANY ranking structure you like for the Statistics engine merely by re-writing the above function, and re-writing the Language pack structureto fit.

Presently the Pilot Rating is simply a function of the number of sorties flown, the numbers of air, surface, infrastructure kills, and the number of KIA+MIA.

If you have some ideas regarding commander-assignation of ranks to pilots, please discuss in detail. I don't follow what you are suggesting.

Cheers,
4Shades

That simple

Bit busy with christmas preparations,but i'l try to "dress" my idea to something...

hi 4S,
Gross Score calculation seems to work wrong in v1.86.

compare:
http://85.14.219.109/ScorchedEarth/MP4/ ... tor=Crimea
with
http://85.14.219.109/ScorchedEarth/MP4/ ... tor=Crimea

then look at pilot details, where single $values are printed
