The campus is Swedish; the game is mostly English. A language toggle would let the signs, room names, interaction prompts and HUD speak Swedish, which is both more faithful and a nice way for a newcomer to learn the words they see on the buildings.

How it fits. UI strings live in a few crates; the first version can cover the HUD, prompts, inventory and settings without touching the baked names. A small message catalog keyed by a string id keeps the two languages side by side. The bake already carries Swedish place names, so those stay as they are.

Scope.

  • A language setting: English and Svenska.
  • HUD, prompts, item names and settings translated.
  • The same layout at both lengths, with no clipped buttons.
  • A note that chat and player names are never translated.
  • A few campus-specific terms left in Swedish on purpose.

Related. #15 (addresses), #50 (street signs), #23 (outdoor signs), #197 (comfort).
