View Full Version : Suggestion for unit/bldg titles

May I suggest using the "\n\n" for building names and unit names where there is a paranthesis for translation? Currently the longer names are displaying badly and some even begin and end off the scroll altogether. The "\n\n" should centre the text for you in a title. This will display correctly for buildings, I have not tested units so do check first.

Keep up the good work.

That was tried before. It caused the "\n'd" text to overlap anything on the next line, making for example battle result screens kinda hurty for the eyes nevermind largely unintelligible...

For units? We use it in FATW for buildings and it works fine.

In older versions the name\ntranslation format was in use, which resulted in the top picture u can see here: https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=80087
A small edit to DEI can fix that as you can see in the pic below that.


Now this setup is used (see bottom two pics): https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=80087 (https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showpost.php?p=1457623&postcount=76)

A small edit to DEI can fix that as well as you can see in the pics above that.

Ah, I know why mine display correctly...the \n was only applied to buildings that exist at game start and cannot be built/destroyed - so the construction scroll never appears.

Glad you've got this in hand ;)
