Descriptions and Translator Text
After you've selected the social outlook, it's time to provide a bit of description and language for your faction. Using faction.txt as an example, scroll down in the text until you reach the following line:
Gaian, Gaian,
This line contains two versions of your faction name. The first is the long faction name, and the second is a short version. For some reason these are identical in faction.txt, but you should use two different names for your custom faction. Other factions will use the names from this line when addressing you inside the game.
Lindly, Scott, Lindly's Rest,
This line contains names that aren't yours or your faction leader's. Think of these names as acquaintances of your faction. The final phrase, here "Lindly's Rest," is the first name plus some ambiguous object or relic.
Lady, beautiful, tree-crazy, ecologically sensitive, eco-daft,
This line begins with your faction leader's title, such as Chancellor or President (here, it's "Lady"). Next, you'll find a series of adjectives; these adjectives describe your leader. The first is positive, the second is negative, the third is positive, and the fourth is negative.
WARNING
In-game text follows the rules laid out in the faction.txt template. You should adhere to the rules that govern the description and translator text section. If you | |
