Title: Custom strings: is it safe/sane to do it this way? Post by: pbox on 2010 January 15, 00:11:25 I just started to construct string overrides for the EAxian careers like so:
1. in the tuning XML, the entries go <Political> <Title>pboxSTC_Secretary</Title> <stuff></stuff> </Political> 2. then I wrote an .xml that goes <KEY>Gameplay/Excel/Careers/Political:pboxSTC_Secretary</KEY> <STR>Secretary</STR> converted it with stblc (thanks for that!) and imported the resulting stbl into my package. The instance for the stbl This works for me (phew!) - I'm just not sure if it's recommended to do this kind of thing, since I see that everybody else seems to override the EAxian values (where I'm making my own keys instead). I have AM installed and my package overrides AM; haven't tested without AM yet. Opinions? (If it does turn out to be a viable way of doing it, I'll convert this into a more info-like post.)

Pescado on 2010 January 15, 01:36:06 The correct way to generate a STBL instance is basically asspull, although the first byte is used for region encoding and does not form part of the instance. The lowest-instanced STBL takes precedence.
