learning curve to learn 0AD

[seeh]

i think learning curve is not very high.

one reason i think i that many civ's has completly new names.

for example to build Cavalry:

- Blemmya Camp -> right click and read: trains Blemmya Desert Raiders (google translator help me not much was Raiders is)

- Stable ->right click and read: trains Cavalry (more to understand for me now. Kusihtes i play not so often).

and then probaly all trooups are different. so camels not like cav and much more -> more interesting maybe and more difficult to understand -> low learning curve

=>mybe if someday someone bouild a easy translator mod. for translating text most as possible to understand for beginners

=> id dont know how to do. maybe its easy i will think about doing this

@seeh Just to make sure: You are aware that there are a lot of translations available? German, for example. (Weren't you German (speaking) too?)

What helped me a lot to get what's what was the structure tree. You can see the buildings and the units and by clicking on them you get more information. I don't know the best translation for 'Raiders', but I do know that I don't want them and therefor never build a Blemmye Camp...

gameplay-wise, camels are actually the exact same as horses.

@seehidk if im getting right what u want but there's is an option on settings menu to show only "Generic names" instead of specific. Maybe u find that useful

A raider is also called a plunderer, which you can translate to German by writhing it with a capital letter and putting an umlaut on the first U.

the civ ptol, the slingers

i used fullText search numbers with

[^\d\.]([0-9]{2,})[^\d\.]

in all files like:

ptol*.xml
