- `locales/<language>.json` · the game's text, exactly as the game ships it. `en-GB` is the original; the others are translations of it.
|
|
- `field-guide/<language>/` · the 70 Reef Journal articles, generated from those files with the game's real numbers filled in.

## Suggest a correction
|
|
|
|
Spotted a typo, an awkward sentence or a wrong translation? Please tell us. Two ways:
|
|
|
|
1. **Open an issue** · say which language, quote the text as it is now and write what it should be. A screenshot helps but is not needed.
|
|
2. **Open a pull request** · edit `locales/<language>.json` and change only the text on the right of the colon.
|
|
|
|
A few things keep a correction easy to accept:
|
|
|
|
- Leave the keys (the names on the left) and the file layout alone.
|
|
- Keep every `{placeholder}` exactly as it is; the game puts a number or a name there.
|
|
- Links look like `[words](/wiki/...)`. Translate the words, keep the address.
|
|
- Change `locales/*.json`, not the pages under `field-guide/`: those are rebuilt from the JSON at every release.
|
|
- One language per pull request is easiest to review.
|
|
|
|
## What happens to a correction
|
|
|
|
An accepted correction is copied into the game by hand-run tooling, which also checks that every language still has the same keys and placeholders. It then ships with the next update of the game, and the next refresh of this repository carries it back here. Until it is copied in, this repository is not refreshed, so a merged correction is never overwritten.
|
|
|
|
## How this repository is made
|
|
|
|
It is generated from the game at each release, one commit per release (`Fishies <version>`). It only ever shows text that is already in the released game.
