"Language SYM.txt/Color" in other Languages Books-aj.svg aj ashton 01.svg
Dwarven: dakas
Elven: mima
Goblin: zon
Human: rusna

Usage

Legendary beings associated with the spheres of dawn, jewels, light, painting, or rainbows will have words from this symbol in their name.

Though not drawing from this symbol directly, some figures are named after the associated word to one of their described colors.

SYMBOL:COLOR

This is the [SYMBOL:COLOR] section of the language_SYM.txt raw file. The file defines categories of words, for use with [SELECT_SYMBOL] and [CULL_SYMBOL] arguments in the corresponding entity file to create various pool of words available for procedural generation of game content (for example, Dwarf names). See Language#language_SYM.txt and Entity_token for more details.

Examples

  • [SELECT_SYMBOL:COLOR]
  • [CULL_SYMBOL:COLOR]

Accented characters

The language files are saved in code page 437 encoding. The accented characters in the language files look like nonsense when interpreted as ASCII or ISO 8859-1, which are often the default. On Windows, viewing the language file with the Terminal font is an easy way to see it correctly.
