Replace "$" sign with "Mg" #8

Closed Wuzzy2 closed 1 year ago

Wuzzy2 commented 2 years ago

Fixes #6.

This replaces the "$" sign used in the UI with the "Mg" because the currency is Minegeld, not dollars. Also, "Mg" is written after the number, not in front of the number.

So what was shown as "$ 30" before will become "30 Mg".

Rationale

The currency mod (on which this mod depends on) uses "Mg" as the abbreviation/symbol for Minegeld, not the "$" sign. You can see this in Money_Info.txt of that mod.

s/\$/₽/g;

Wuzzy2 commented 2 years ago

No.

h-v-smacker commented 2 years ago

Y tho?

Wuzzy2 commented 2 years ago

It seems out of place. "Minegeld" has no letter P in it. Seems quite arbitrary.

The real question is, why not "Mg", which is official and makes more sense?

h-v-smacker commented 2 years ago

Mg is megagram tho

Wuzzy2 commented 2 years ago

OK, now you're trolling. If you don't want it, just close it.

What about the old-fashioned currency sign «¤»? It's literally meant to stand for "generic monetary units", with no relation to existing currencies or short forms of metric units.
