Re: Language

It's not OS-dependant, take a look into teeworlds/data/languages and edit a file (or create a new one).

Not Luck, Just Magic.

Re: Language

Not in '/home/user/.teeworlds/' , but in your installation folder, so maybe '/home/teeworlds'

Re: Language

I installed it form the Ubuntu software center too and can't find it either big_smile
I tried searching it with 'sudo find / -name teeworlds 2> /dev/null' , but nothing

EDIT:
Found it, the Teeworlds folder is in '/usr/share/games/teeworlds', when installed from the Software Center!

Re: Language

sudo chmod -R o+w /usr/share/games/teeworlds

Although not the best idea. Will do fine on your desktop system though.

Edit: hasifee's suggestion is better, look below.

Edit 2: maybe you can also put the file in .teeworlds/data/languages (would have to be the index file too)

Re: Language

There is another way, that not changes the permissions of the folder.
Start your texteditor with root:

sudo gedit

Then just save your text at the directory you want. I tried it with Gimp to create new
skins or map resources. It worked fine and I dont have to change anything at the
filesystem.

In this case it is better to change the rights of the stuff you want to modify instead of using software as root, because such software could easily damage your system and the whole rights system gets useless for this software! You should avoid using software as root whenever possible, especially complex desktop software like gimp!

Sorry for that bit off-topic, but (just as example) how can something like
Gimp be a security thread for my system? Maybe I missed something while
informing myself about Linux but I couldnt think about any possibility
that affects my system just by starting software with root permission.
(as far as i do know the software Im starting with root. I wouldnt be stupid enough
to start some suspicous programs with it)

You should always work with the principle of least privilege, which means that you should only grant all programs the rights that they really use. You can't know whether your 'trusted' programs like gimp have bugs - if they have (and they do have, hardly any program is bugfree) and someone finds a way to exploit the bug, he might be able to acquire the root rights of the program you trust, and thus compromising your computer.
