Localization files can be found in the localization folder.
Unlike most other files, they localization files have .yml extension.
All files names should look like this: <something>_l_<language>.yml
The file format is UTF-8 with BOM.
Text formatting should begin with a # character and end with #!:
#<formatting code> <text> #! Example: #P +15%#!
Insert other localization keys: $<other key>$ (e.g. $special_contract_march_short$ )
Example:
l_english: innovation_motte:0 "Mottes" innovation_motte_desc:0 "Simple yet effective, building our castles on raised earthen mounds is the best way to ensure we quite literally have the high ground over our enemies." unlock_tribal_economic_buildings:0 "Unlocks all Tribal Era [economic_buildings|E]" unlock_tribal_military_buildings:0 "Unlocks all Tribal Era [military_buildings|E]" unlock_march_contract:0 "Unlocks the #high $special_contract_march_short$#! [feudal_contract|E]"

Special Characters[edit]
Some sets of characters perform special functions.
| Command | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| \n | Line break. Works only in certain cases. | |
| #P | Formats text "positive" | #P A very good thing has happened#! |
| #N | Formats text "negative" | #N A rather bad thing has happened#! |
| #help | Text is shown using a help style | #help If you do not give either Gold or Soldiers to the war effort, your [head_of_faith|E] will condemn you and you will lose [piety|E].#! |
| #I | Text is displayed in an informational style | #I Click to view your [GetPlayer.GetCouncillorPosition( 'councillor_court_chaplain' ).GetPositionName]#! |
| #W | Text is displayed as a warning | #X Only your younger children lacks [guardians|E]#! |
Linking[edit]
Localization strings can link to game concepts as follows:
[concept_key|E] # So for example [faith|E]
Rounding numbers[edit]
If a numeric value has a decimal portion, it can be rounded by using the desired number of decimal places, such as:
# Round to 2 decimals [some_value|2] # Remove all decimals: [some_value|0]
Note that the value is always rounded down.
