Is there a built-in method for a script to know the system language of the OS that is running the server?
If it's not, how can I do it?

Thank you in advance

As far as I know, there is no scripted method for doing this, although I'm sure one could be added. It would just be a matter of getting the client to report the information to the server.

Ofcourse you can detect a language! Well, maybe not a system one, but still you can do it!

Take example of my A/D server, it detects your language and sends the correct messages ( only added principal languages for the countries theirselves, not any colonies, sigh )


All it takes is to get the country and then translate it inside the script. ( that's how I did it in my A/D Server )

Can you explain me how to do something like that?
Thanks

Make arrays for each language, store the texts there, and when someone connects, get country ( necesarily at join ) and message them.

How do I get the player's country? (sorry if there's too many questions )

You might aswell google, also, look on VC:MP unofficial forums. With few function renames, you can easily port VC:MP scripts to LU. You would need a MaxMind SQLite DB with the countries then get the country based on a math calculation (?, can't recall).

Not currently home, will post more details asap.

Comparing countries to languages is a workaround, but if you get a multilingual user that is not from the same country as the language they use, you will run into issues.

I found the post, thank you

That's why I'll only use English and Spanish
