Editting tokens

Markmeister · 04-21-2007, 08:01 AM

I've looked and couldn't find anything regarding tokens other than their use.

Is it possible to edit the tokens so that they insert different terms into the news stories?

I am currently working on a vintage league and editted the english.xml file to change a lot of things to vintage terminology. Home runs = four basers, players = ballists, batters = strikers, etc. The results look good so far with the majority of changes that I still need to make being expressions and phrases that don't fit the era.

One thing I have to edit in the game is the token output. Some of the tokens I was able to adjust - i.e. [%batting hr word] became [% batting hr] four basers. This eliminated most of the edits but I still have to fix the occasional 1 four basers. [%playerposition] though always has to be edited (i.e. change first baseman to first basetender).

Is there a place to edit the token results?

Sorry, no. Except for one or two exceptions all the token results are hard coded.

That's what I figured.

Would be a nice addition to a future patch/version though if the token results could be somehow added to an editable table (if possible)
