Not localizing error/warning messages
Closed this issue · 2 comments
The decision during the last meeting was not localizing warnings and error messages.
LOGERROR, LOGWARNING, LOGMESSAGE aren't yet localized anyway, but for most of the warn(), error() and log() statements in JS we need to remove the localization code.
Background: we need the unlocalized error messages for providing support and in the final game the error handling and error reporting should be different anyway. A friendly message for the user should be displayed and an automatic error reporting service should be available in the background.
Developers will probably be expected to understand English and errors in the logs will be in English. This part is out of scope until Alpha 16 of course.

Some Trac tickets for automatic error reporting:
I think that is it, we can reopen if we find more.
