Problem with the "help" file

I'm translating the "help.txt" file and I came across these lines located at line 113 with notepad +

I found these lines of code in the "help.txt" file.

OM_IS_A
Disable Internal Sale
The default setting of #Internal Sale# is #Disabled#. Competitors are allowed to buy your products.
~
OM_IS_B
Enable Internal Sale
The default setting of #Internal Sale# is #Disabled#. Competitors are not allowed to buy your products.

I think there's something wrong. It says that competitors can buy our products when the option is disabled but they can't when it's enabled not to mention the "disabled" which are put for both times...

PS: there is the same problem with the post release version

thank you for your feedback

Thanks for pointing this out. This will be fixed in the next update.

The corrected text is:

OM_IS_B
Enable Internal Sale
The default setting of #Internal Sale# is #Enabled#. Competitors are not allowed to buy your products.

Here's a new typing error found in the file ^^

E_EXPORT

The total value of exports. It is used for calculating the Net Exports component of GDP.
~
E_IMPORT
Total Imports
The total value of imports. It is used for calculating the Net Exports component of GDP.

Also, I don't find these word in my dictionary


SLOTIIMG
Toogle Display (Hotkey: Ctrl-A)
Toggle the display of product images on the 3x3 layout area.

Is it indeed toogle and not toggles? I see this word a few time after.


What's the difference? It seems that both have the title "Personal Computer Users".

D_PC
Personal Computer Users
It shows the number of personal computer users in this city.
~
D_PCI
Personal Computer Users
It shows the number of personal computer users who have access to the Internet in this city.

Thanks for pointing these out.

The help.txt file with the corrections will be available in the next version 6.4.07.

In the meantime, you can find the help.txt file with the corrections attached in this post, so that you don't have to wait for the next version.

FYI, the meaning of 'toggle', searched from Google:
COMPUTING
switch from one effect, feature, or state to another by using a toggle.
"the play/pause button toggles between those functions"

When I put my mouse on the eggs, I do get the help message.

However, if I put the mouse on the golf club, nothing is displayed.

Of course, there is this problem with other products; the order seems to be important.

Is it possible to display this " speech bubble " each time you put the mouse close to the picture ?

Thanks.

This is actually a bug. The help text displayed is for the Auto Link Supplier icon on the firm detail interface underneath the popup window, which should not be displayed. This bug will be fixed in the next version 6.5.00.

As we can see in the video, we see for a few seconds the English help before having the French help.
