- translatable techtrees, currently supported resource names, unit names and upgrade names. For each techtree created a lang folder in the techtree main folder. Now create language specific files <techtree>_language.lng as we do for scenarios. In the file add:

ResourceTypeName_<name>=My new resource name
UnitTypeName_<name>=<name>=my new unit name
UpgradeTypeName_<name>=my new upgrade name
