A_SetTranslation

void A_SetTranslation (name transname)

Usage

Applies a TRNSLATE-defined translation to the calling actor. Unlike Thing_SetTranslation, this accepts an actual name instead of an ID.

Parameters

• transname: the name of the translation to use. Setting this to either "" (empty string) or 'None'^{(ZScript only)} (note the use of single quotes, as it treats the value as a name) clears the translation, while setting it to '' (empty name) resets the translation to the actor's default, if any (ZScript only).

Examples

This is a regular zombie which has a pain state that allows it to be "glitched", randomly changing its stats, as well as changing its translation.
