FAQ:

  • Should I use the Save or Suggest button?
    Please use Save in 99% of cases, use Suggest only if you are not sure of your translation.
  • Should I translate words in {}?
    No, they will be replaced by the game, so “Plan day {day}” will become “Plan day 1”.
  • Should I translate alien names?
    Please contact other translators – we want to keep it sound natural for every language, so for some languages, we translate it and for some others, it stays in the original English form.
