Title: [suggestion] "wkgoogletranslate" to lobby and chat?
Post by: Albus on October 14, 2021, 03:49 PM

Eliminating the communication barrier would greatly enhance the gaming experience. For example, playing clanners and being able to communicate with those who don't know a common language etc. Would it be possible to create a module that somehow uses google translate in the game lobby and chat? I'll give an example of how the module could work. Let's assume I want to speak Russian to someone. I would use the module's .ini file and set my default language to Portuguese. And if I wanted to speak Russian, I would use some command like this: /rus + portuguese message + enter = message sent in russian.

Been suggested before.  I think it's a great idea.

Yandex offers a free translation API up to 10000 messages per day iirc, Google costs money
