# Translations
|
|
|
|
The easiets way to help translate the game is with weblate. Simply use [hosted.weblate.org/projects/pixelplanet](https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/pixelplanet/). Feel free to ask in the Translation section in [our Discord](https://pixelplanet.fun/guilded) if you need help.

|
|
Tips for Weblate:
|
|
|
|
- `Ctrl + Enter` is the shortcut for `Save and Continue` while translationg
|
|
- Manual with a list of shortcuts [is here](https://docs.weblate.org/en/latest/user/translating.html)
|
|
|
|
If a language code differs from the country code of a wanted flag, it can be defined in the `i18n/lccc.json` file. In example `{ "en": "gb" }` maps the english language to the flag of Great Britain.
|
|
|
|
All translated languages get an own chat channel that just people who use this language can access.

# Translating Offline
|
|
|
|
Two translation files for each language are needed, `ssr-[locale].po` and `[locale].pb` (i.e. `ssr-de.po` and `de.po`).
|
|
|
|
Translation files can be created out of the templates [template.pot](https://git.pixelplanet.fun/ppfun/translations/raw/branch/master/template.pot) and [template-ssr.pot](https://git.pixelplanet.fun/ppfun/translations/raw/branch/master/template-ssr.pot). They are standard GNU gettext files and can be edited in any ordinary texteditor or po-Editor.

|
|

5. Save the translation as `[locale].po` (i.e. `es.po` for spanish)

6. Do the same again, but with [template-ssr.pot](https://git.pixelplanet.fun/ppfun/translations/raw/branch/master/template-ssr.pot) and save it as `ssr-[locale].po`
|
|
7. Send us the two files on [discord](https://pixelplanet.fun/guilded) or make a pull request
