Hello!
My team and I have gotten together and have started working on our game for the Yandex jam but have run into a few issues with creating the game, specifically with utilizing the Russian language.
Issue 1: How do we get Russian Text in the game?
- We’ve downloaded a Russian font (18VAG Rounded M Normal: Download Free Russian Fonts | Russian Fonts : Russian Fonts)
- It works on the website but when I downloaded and put it into Defold it refused to work, I could copy paste in Russian Text but it refused to appear on GUIs / labels.
- Am I missing a setting somewhere in Defold, is this font just not compatible?
- If I am going about this wrong, how do I get Russian text in the game?
Issue 2: Capturing text input.
- One of the things my team is attempting to do is use key triggers to do input.
- We figured that this would allow for easy key rebinding, especially for Russian keyboards which my team cannot test on as we do now have one.
- The issue is text triggers only capture the key once with no press / released attribute, so I don’t know how to do movement comparable to just using the arrow keys that give us the press / released attribute.
- Is there anyway to make this work or am I approaching this issue wrong?
- Also, will the English arrow key input binding be the same on a Russian Keyboard if we just had to use that?
Thanks and help / advice is appreciated!
