Typos, grammar errors, etc. - TECHNICAL SUPPORT / WEB APPs BUGS

On the old forum there was a thread for reporting these. I couldn't find one on here, so I'm creating one.

~ The Larvae Preparation Table near Fairhaven is named "Lavae Preparation Table" -- missing the "r" in "Larvae".

~ The in-game browser can't display the quotation marks used in Chronicles (probably generated by a heavy text editor like OpenOffice). So, dialog in those stories is not marked at all when viewed in-game and looks ridiculous. Please edit them in a lighter text editor to use basic quotation marks, or at least write future lore pages that way.

~ When you right click on the rotoa trees near Fairhaven, the option is "Get_flower_menu". This seems unfinished.

Hi Chalai,

Thanks for your input. Can you tell me which Chronicles look off to you in-game? The ones that I have checked look fine.

Sywindt, it might also have something to do with installed fonts for Chalai's webbrowser vs. yours. The request to write the Lore using Lowest Common Denominator word processors sounds like a good idea to me, too.

It's game browser and the offending characters are left/right double quotation mark.

can be seen (or not if you ingame;-) in WIKI [Corsair_01]

Hello!

Thanks -- so it is a matter of installed fonts, since my external version of Firefox showed them just fine. It makes sense that the in-game web browser (the web app is just a browser) is a stripped down version with a "universal font." (Which is to say one in which all the fancy stuff doesn't work.)

Incorrect word choice or misspelling:

Silan / Guilan Guiter / Hunters & Prey #1

...."I didn't annoy you too much with my explications?"

Likely word supposed to be there is "explanations".

All Chronicles should look ok now.

@Sywindt:
Wow. Nice and fast. :D Thank you.

It works. It might trip people up a little, occasionally, but no more than "quarter" does.
