Since our chieftain hasn't been around for a while I started running the translations syncs. However it seems that it's not working properly: Some of the strings which are being properly displayed on Transifex don't show up in the game.

For example the campaign difficulty strings from Maps&ScenarioDescriptions ("Sailor", "Steersman", "Captain") can be translated on Transifex but are shown in English in the game. The .po file (po/maps/nds.po) is missing those strings altogether. (Edit: the source .pot file contains them though)

I just ran another update but the strings are still missing. Can someone else confirm this?

Oops face-smile.png The textdomain was indeed set five lines after fetching the translations… fixed now. Additionally I forced an update of all translation files that added the missing strings to the .po. If anyone finds anything strange regrading translations please report here…
