The two hundred encounters are now in all thirty-five languages

Until now the encounters - the flooded ford, the Tang commissioner with his
ledger, the blind singer who knows four hundred lines of the khagan's descent -
existed in twelve languages. In the other twenty-three you read the interface
in your own language and the encounters in English.

That gap is closed. All thirty-five languages now carry the interface and
all two hundred encounters: 1,738 lines of written prose each, the whole
thing, in every language the game offers.

The language screen has nothing left to warn you about

It used to tell you, before you picked, that your language would give you the
interface but not the encounters. That sentence is gone, because the thing it
warned about is gone. Every language on that screen is now the whole game.

Fixed

• Traditional Chinese contained simplified characters. Forty of them
  were the same one - the negative that turns up in nearly every sentence - and
  five further characters accounted for twenty-seven more. They had been there since
  Traditional Chinese was added, and the check meant to catch them could not:
  it only looked for characters that were in its conversion table, so anything
  missing from the table was invisible to it.
• A Kyrgyz line ended a word with a Latin letter. In "сууктa" the
  final character was a Latin a rather than a Cyrillic one. The two are
  identical on screen, which is exactly why it survived - and why the game now
  checks every word in every language for characters from two alphabets at once.
• The delivery line in the journal printed its own template in
  Turkish, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Uzbek, Kazakh, Kyrgyz and Turkmen. The
  count and the place name had been translated into the other order, and the
  line failed to assemble rather than filling in. Japanese had the same fault on
  the contract offer and the missed-contract notice.

Also in this build

Korean, Thai, Greek and Traditional Chinese now draw from typefaces that ship
inside the game. They used to borrow from whatever the operating system
happened to have, which is fine on a machine that has it and a screen of empty
boxes on one that does not.
