Fixed General Typo in Azalea Gym

[Bgrmystr2]

The trainer Bug Catcher Benny at the back left of the Azalea Gym has a typo that says
"Bug pokemon evlolve young. So.."

First off, as amusing as it is to see him say ev-lawlve.. instead of evolve, this needs a fix. You also wouldn't start a sentence with the word 'So'. It probably should be one sentence and not two.

Fairly general typo and grammar. Didn't see it anywhere in the bug reports.
Version 0.22.1

There is also a typo with the twins at the 2nd gym. When the battle starts it says Twin Amy and Twin Amy want to battle instead of Twin Amy and Twin May want to battle. Just throwing that out there.

Now now, there's no need to be childish about it. Plenty of games have spelling and grammar errors in them. Even those from Electronic Arts, Blizzard, and other large companies. People make mistakes. There's nothing to be 'told'.

Just because you CAN type a sentence that begins with the word 'So', it doesn't mean it's proper English. The game was meant for kids anyway. (Not to mention the wrong NPC has the wrong text to begin with. Another error?) I guess one minor 'perfection' grammar mistake isn't such big deal.

Granted the verbal English language is never perfect, most people speak in slang. As long as others understand, it should be fine. Stories that are written with broken English have more oomph than one written with grammatical perfection. Should I have said something like : "It would be *more* grammatically correct as one sentence than it is two."?

I guess having a college level English reading comprehension in 5th grade, and that of a 32 year old in 10th grade means nothing anymore. I'll get right on that.

You don't have to be so condescending. :I The devs of this project don't have English as their first language so sometimes issues will appear there as well.

He does have a point though however if he truly wants grammatical correct english then nothing is stopping him from creating his own proper text version of the game.

As it is now every sentence of text is ported over from the old games and typed by hand there is no after thought of writing it grammatical correct it just gets ported over as is.

The devs are working on placing systems in place for translations and as such there will be the option to choose for the original translation or if he so desires can choose to make his own improved version and choose from that.

When these systems are here is not yet known however text can already be translated and be ready for when those systems are in place.

Did I really come off as condescending? That's totally my bad. Sorry. I really didn't mean to. I get like that sometimes. Not on purpose, mind you.

It just irks me sometimes. That I 'just got told' is a pretty grade school class insult. It gave me a laugh to be honest. I don't intend to insult anyone, though. I've just spent all day nearly every day for almost the past decade with kids around half my age. I'm probably so defensive from that that it's getting to me and I don't notice it.

Now that's something I actually will try to work on.

On the offhand, I have to admit porting all of the text directly over is probably the easiest way to do it, and I completely understand. I'll keep a look out for anything that is probably not intended to be in the original games. That and I'll try to keep my zeal to a minimum. Promise. (Unless it's acceptable harharhar )

Sorry guys
I am trying to fix the spelling errors in every update
And yeah, my first language is German, so my English might not be perfect (or even close).

Also, the language pack update will be happening today, the delivered languages are German and English, you can add new by ease (create a new language file and...translate the lines).

 

[Shou Liengod]

Yes, which is great. you dont havt to worry about spelling errors.
unless you typed it incorrectly in the script yourself, but yeah.

 

[Bgrmystr2]

Professional at work.

Oh man, I noticed you replied personally. Here, I thought you were going to bite my head off or something but you came in so professional about it. Seriously. "Oh my god, he's gonna to come in, 'Rahhhhh !' and bite my head off. D:"

You've gained so much respect from my side, you have no idea. (Moreso than you did before, looking at the obscene amount of coding you're putting into this awesome recreation.)

 

[Shou Liengod]

Yes, Nillzz is very reasonable. he wont just come in and start a War, so dont worry about it. Haha ^ ^
