Localize local changing Strings

Hey there

Overall The Localization Tool works fine for me but i have some exceptional cases where i would like to know if there is a solution with the Localization Tool do it easy and fast.

So for Example in the game are serveral Players with different Names and Teams. This Teams and Names are changing on runtime or locally so i can't use the table with fixed entries to solve this cases.

There is also a button which changes between Dash and Tackle like this:

Code (CSharp):

1. tackleButton.SetText(hasBall ? "Dash" : "Tackle");

As you can see ingame the Text changes from Dash to Tackle if hasBall is True.

But is there a way to localize Dash & Tackle with the localization tool?

 

hey there,
It still looks easier to make an own table for that case because for dash/tackle alone we need to use additional code like this, to check which state we are in. Is there an easier solution with smart strings?

Code (CSharp):

1. {connection_state : choose (Disconnected|JoiningLobby|InLobby|JoiningGame|InGame) : {disconnected}|{joiningLobby}|{inLobby}|{joiningGame}|{inGame}}
2.   - supply local variables for nested LocalStrings disconnected joiningLobby inLobby joiningGame inGame
3.   - supply local variable for Source connection_state [System.Serializable] public class ConnectionStateSource :
4.  ISource {     public string selector = "connection_state";
5.      public bool TryEvaluateSelector(ISelectorInfo selectorInfo)     {         if (selectorInfo.SelectorText != selector)             return false;          
6. selectorInfo.Result = NetworkManager.State.ToString()         return true;     } }
7. Does this update on statechange?

yes thanks. i think that is the better way then.
