The fatal error box only uses left half for displaying text.

Fixed (but kindly please also dig into the code as developer ... )

Will do, once I have SVN access. Until then I'll just report things, or fix them on my branch if I think it makes sense to have a local fix. But some changes must come from Standard, otherwise merging will be too difficult.

This one seemed to be of general importance, though, because I saw players post screenshots with such messages, and so it is something that's most important Standard, since that has the biggest audience.

Translations currently fall into the same category - it makes no sense to do them on "my" side of development, since I cannot merge changes from Standard easily anymore if I do that. So I'll file requests for such changes and hope to get them through updates from Standard into my codebase, too. But I don't want to bother the team too much with that, it's not urgent or important at this point of time. I just wanted to tell my experiences after doing translations on my side, and ending up with a development line where I couldn't merge anything from Standard anymore. I was told so, I still tried and I can now confirm: it doesn't work if I try translating on branch side only.

It's ok, no worries. I'll try to write more friendly again and accept the situation as we have it now. Maybe I'll even now and then post a patch if I want something urgently in the Standard code base. Sorry for stirring up the old discussion again. Let us put it to rest and continue like we did the past weeks.
