Localize is a localization system made for GameMaker, implemented with real time Google Sheets API syncronization and translation

Github Repository

How to use!

1. Create a Google Sheets file, share it and select "Anyone with the link" to be a Viewer (Reader).

(You can also use the demo sheet as a base and just copy it and changing the ID)

 .csv sheet format example

language	English	Português	Español
text_intro	This is an intro!	Isso é uma intro!	Esta és una introdución

2. Copy the unique sheet ID from the URL and paste on the LOC_SHEET_ID macro. 

3. Call the function localize_http() on the Async HTTP event on your game manager object.

4. Use the system by calling localize() as a string and the localized text will be returned.

Note that for the language change to appear in real time, the localize() function must be called in a repeatable event such as a step, draw or a time source.

The project contains further instructions on how to use it, along with a demo showing how to use the other localize_ functions to get and set the language.
