Translation progression visualization on language picker

[okunamayanad]

A small circle next to languages to display the progression of translation for that language

Here's a quick sketch of how it could look:

are there any updates on this @okunamayanad?

Personally, I think this is unnecessary, because it doesn’t make sense to put the translation percentage in the language selection menu. It would be more logical to have a separate page for translations and display the percentage there. Keep in mind that many regular users will access the site; they wouldn’t have the slightest idea what that percentage means.

Actually, I made a mistake when I said percentage. I was referring to progress. Anyway

I mean it's just a QoL thing, yes we do have other things that we could spend our time doing but it wouldn't be a harm to have this feature.

Might close & delay until after Hytale release because we should rather spend our time integrating a CMS system to make it easier for people to create guides.

It actually would, A person comfortable with multiple languages could select based on which one has more progress. Other community translated projects already do this, take a look at MultiMC for example.

To serve as an example, I'm comfortable with Turkish and English but EN is 100% (as it's the source language) and TR is less than 10%. I'd pick English if I had this context available to me.

I don't think there's any need to be delaying this but instead lowering its priority (which I now set to be P2, lowest).
I can't really help with CMS stuff as I think you know better than I do but can implement this feature. Which I'll do in my free time when there's nothing else to work on. That's why priorities exists, no?

I thought about it more and I think it would actually be a good idea. Because in the example you gave, I thought it should include a percentage and that would be enough. But then I realized that it’s actually progress-bar–style progress, and that would be a really cool form of feedback to encourage people to translate.

Reference 3

Thanks for generating all of these (and wow Gemini did a great job)!
I added numbers to be able to reference them.

My original idea was something like 3 although 1 also looks good to me.
Let's get some more feedback on this one.

[ItsNeil17]

I think the third or second reference is the most easiest on the eyes. Usually you'd want something like 3 to not overwhelm the user.
