Translating and Modding

Translations

Pirates and Traders is a game with a lot of text. It is - I hope - part of the charm of the game, but it is also from time to time an obstacle for players who live in non-English speaking parts of the world being able to enjoy the game. Unfortunately, the very size of the game text is also an obstacle to efforts at translation - it means that it is not a commercially viable decision for me to spend money on a translation effort, and it makes the actual attempt at performing a translation a considerable undertaking.

Nevertheless, people have attempted this task, and we currently have an almost complete translation of the non-story text of the game into German.
