I am making personal Chinese translation for this game and have finished the main script of Liberation Day. However I need some help before that thing could combine into the game.
1. The new choice making system seems not recognized by renpy inbuilt translating function. After finished my translation, I find some of the choices are not translated. For example:
Such choice1/2_text things never appeared in my translation file. I wonder how the offical Japanese translation solved this problem and I need to borrow that.
2. I don’t know where to find the language selection definition. I want to copy the “Japanese” language selection part to make the new language available, but do not know where to go.
3. I’m still dreaming about the function mentioned in my last post which has not received any official response. And I’m copying that part again, trying to raise attention again.
If this becomes possible, the second problem is solved.

$ choice1_text = "You're lying... Chigara's not one of you."
$ choice1_jump = "chigaranotyou"
$ choice2_text = "You're... not getting instructions. Are you?"
$ choice2_jump = "notgettinginstructions"
show screen decision
Such choice1/2_text things never appeared in my translation file. I wonder how the offical Japanese translation solved this problem and I need to borrow that.

In Liberation Day, Japanese language is added. The inbuilt language selection is much better than what I did in the language mod. I have no knowledge in this renpy language and many people told me my language mod did not work. That programming part was beyond my knowledge so I just pretend that did not happen. Now I come up a new idea to solve this problem, provided I could get help from game maker.
What if add a third language “Custom” as a choice, and make a new file “Language” where translators could simply edit it to set custom language related definitions. Then translators only need to let renpy generate a translation file, set fonts at “Language” file, finish the translation and throw that file into “Custom” language folder and tell users “download my translation file and select custom language, done”.
If possible, this could help translators who are poor programmers like me a lot. I don’t need to stare at the dizzy renpy program, trying to find a place to add my made up language change lines, and find it not working at all. Furthermore, if this function could also be added in “Mask of Arcadius”, that could be the best news I could hear this year. Since Liberation Day has start as a new game, it is time for me to make a “Sunrider Introduction Chapter Translation Complete Edition”, while I still have no idea how to solve the language selection part.
