Translation System
I'm not sure if it's possible to make this, but if it is, then I think it would be a great add-on.


Translation System:

Each time you send a PM to someone, you write it down in whatever language you normally speak with, and when the person you sent the message to recieves the PM, the message will be translated based on the language they selected to be in their client. So, if I have an English set client, and I message someone with a German set client, then when I send my message in English, they will recieve it in German.

This would be beneficial for English players to understand servers such as Atlantis and such, and those players that are not native to English, will be able to speak with others without a problem.

Do you want this as a script or built into Graal?

That would be hard to do. Usually translators do not conjugate the words correctly. Plus, you'd have to take into account that some people would no doubt use improper grammar and slang.

Well, if the translation system had a spell checker, then when you send a PM with improper grammar, it will tell you "The message could not be sent due to the imporper grammar in the message, please correct the gramatical errors and resend" or so? Would definitely get people to stop acting like they're "gangsters".

Just a suggestion.

Yes, that's a bad idea, there's already a "translate" button (although it doesn't work at the moment... should be fixed), that's enugh.
Not until we've got intelligent Computers that can translate correctly

whenever I recieve a PM that I can't understand I assume they're speaking in tongues and I try to cast whatever devil that is in them, out.

I think it's a good idea, but like Kai said, it just isn't feasible.

Everyone should just learn English. That's the easiest solution.
