toki pona translation mod

[deft dawn]

https://github.com/balt-dev/musi-talato

lmk if you find any weird or wrong translations i am honestly not the best at the language lmao! and a lot of these i did late at night so
feedback is appreciated, prs are even more so bc then it means i don't have to do anything lol
steamodded is supported but optional! this adds smods localization

[deft dawn]

[hazy kernel]

@hardy geyser post toki pona numbers in balala

[balmy kiln]

How do you get it to use Toki Pona and not English?

I don't see a toggle for it

[hardy geyser]

Feel free to check how i did numbers in zero error. you basically just count how many 5s, 2s and 1s are contained in a number and then append together that many luka, tu and wan.

[deft dawn]

language bottom right of main menu

i need to updste this bc ehen i was just starting out i forgot the word "esun" existed 😭

got me saying things like "pakala mani"

mind you this was months ago

[balmy kiln]

Which one do I select? I don't see a Toki Pona button

@deft dawn

[deft dawn]

a mod you have installed might be blocking it

and make sure the mod is actually in the right directory

it should be Mods/TokiPona/main.lua

but also

update to latest i just fixed a horrible translstioj from months ago

@balmy kiln

[balmy kiln]

I have mods/musi-talato-trunk/main.lua

And still running into the same issue.

Lemme try moving some mods

I moved EVERY mod out of the mods folder, still getting a LOVELY crash

[deft dawn]

what the fuck

@balmy kiln okay send me the log please

@hexed stirrup oh hai baker

[hexed stirrup]

:3

[deft dawn]

do you know toki pona??

also

balatest saved my ass tysm for making it

[hexed stirrup]

i do not but i want to learn it

and :3 for balatest

does this use sitelen pona or the romanization?

[deft dawn]

it uses sitelen lasina :p

i thought about sitelen pona but

i needed some obscure words

[balmy kiln]

Shit, missed this

[balmy kiln]

This is what I keep getting

[deft dawn]

@balmy kiln can you send lovely/dump/globals.lua

[balmy kiln]

Uhhhh lemme grab that file

[balmy kiln]

Hey, so big issue

I don't HAVE such a file

@deft dawn So uhhh

Even after a launch

[balmy kiln]

I only get the conf and main files

[devout sky]

@ripe mulch make numpona real

[deft dawn]

huh the fuck

[balmy kiln]

Found a snippet of code from the dumped main.lua that seems to be holding it up.

What mod file tries to patch a function in that file?

[balmy kiln]

Ok, so if my backtracking is correct, somehow, the fuck up occurs with the tokipona_load_language function from patch.lua because of how the format is fucky with Windows

What OS was this originally coded on?

@deft dawn

[grand shoal]

that comes from this patch in lovely.toml

[[patches]]
[patches.pattern]
target = "main.lua"
position = "before"
pattern = "function love.run()"
payload = """
_tokipona_load_language("{{lovely_hack:patch_dir}}")
"""
times = 1
match_indent = true

something's apparently wrong with that lovely hack

it is not immediately obvious to me why that is; this doesn't have anything obviously wrong with it

[ripe mulch]

holy shit numPona real

[grand shoal]

okay, i think i found an answer to why the backslashes aren't escaped properly
i mean i don't know why this makes a difference, but i think i know what's happening

changing the triple double quotes in lovely.toml into triple single quotes did indeed fix the crash. for some reason.

[inland swallow]

thats how toml works

...i think

" escapes backslashes, ' treats everything as literal

[grand shoal]

huh
til

no idea where i'll use that

[deft dawn]

.........strange

fixed

[deft dawn]

<- not a windows user

@balmy kiln fixed it

[deft dawn]

i mean like

nah

arabic numerals are better for this

esp given how big numbers get

and there's intentional design coming from what's in nasin nanpa pona and what's in nasin nanpa Alapin (arabic, coming from العربية, or earabiun)

[balmy kiln]

Welp.

It's time

[ripe mulch]

balal

[devout sky]

why is aikoyori over there

[ripe mulch]

jan Akojoli

[devout sky]

true

[steep light]

yo

I was interested in making a toki pona mod, how far is the development of this one?

[deft dawn]

pretty far

i mena

all vanilla strings have been translated

but they could probably be cleaned up a bit

i'm not the best at tp

[steep light]

I could definitely help! What strings need to be cleaned up?

[deft dawn]

honestly
