MOD_FOLDER and LANGUAGE
« on: March 28, 2016, 04:17:25 AM »
These two seem to collide in a funny way. If you do
Code: [Select]
LANGUAGE ~English~ ~ENGLISH~ ~%MOD_FOLDER%/tra/english/game.tra~then it will get installed properly - at first. However, when you install next mod, it will try to pull strings for weidu.log from the next MOD_FOLDER, resulting in either incorrect comments or UNDEFINED STRINGs in weidu.log.

weidu 239

Yeah, the log-writer function evaluates TP2 contexts in a completely unhygenic way. I can probably fix it. Don't use MOD_FOLDER like this until then.

I can't reproduce this using WeiDU 249. I also see improvements during reading tp2 component names with ~%MOD_FOLDER%/tra/english/game.tra~ when tp2 file is provided as an absolute path. I can see this commit: https://github.com/WeiDUorg/weidu/commit/e8d36d1a793ca638809acd8b86ad3df60ab0422b but I would like to be sure. Is this was somehow fixed along the way between 247 and 249?

Nope, still a problem, you can observe it by installing mod and running weidu.exe --change-log <fileFromOverride> to observe missing strings.
