Message from developer [07/18/2017]:

This week I had attended many meetings, and due to lack of time, I did not work on the treant class. I have finished the sprites for treant. But, I want to let you know that this project will slow down significantly since I am working on other projects.
I have received many private messages about using the source code, so I will use this place to answer it.
Even though this is an open source project, but this does NOT mean you can use it for commercial-purpose or publish on AppStore by re-skin/re-modeling the sprites. The main purpose of this project is to show what we can achieve with the Apple's SpriteKit and it is also my hobby to do so. Of course, if your purpose is just to learn and/or practice, you are free to use the code as you like.

Hi @woguan ,

I'm reporting this issue because my team and I are trying to localize this game to different language(s) for a school project (200% no commercial purpose). In your project, you made the description of characters go to different lines by hard-coded them. This, however, makes localization hard.

      let firstLabel = SKLabelNode()
            firstLabel.numberOfLines = 0
            firstLabel.preferredMaxLayoutWidth = 1000
            firstLabel.name = "character_menu_firstlabel"
            firstLabel.horizontalAlignmentMode = .left
            firstLabel.verticalAlignmentMode = .top
            firstLabel.fontColor = .brown
            **firstLabel.text = "She was born in the wilds and "**
            firstLabel.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakMode.byWordWrapping
            firstLabel.fontName = "GillSans-Bold"
            firstLabel.fontSize = firstlinebox.size.width/MAGICNUMBER
            firstlinebox.addChild(firstLabel)
   
        // 2nd Line
        let secondlinebox = SKSpriteNode()
            secondlinebox.name = "character_menu_secondlinebox"
            secondlinebox.size = CGSize(width: txtBox.size.width, height: txtBox.size.height/3)
            secondlinebox.anchorPoint = CGPoint(x: 0.0, y: 1.0)
            secondlinebox.position.y = -secondlinebox.size.height
            secondlinebox.color = .clear
            txtBox.addChild(secondlinebox)
    
        let secondLabel = SKLabelNode()
            secondLabel.name = "character_menu_secondlabel"
            secondLabel.horizontalAlignmentMode = .left
            secondLabel.verticalAlignmentMode = .top
            secondLabel.fontColor = .brown
            **secondLabel.text = "raised by dragons. When dragons"**
            secondLabel.fontName = "GillSans-Bold"
            secondLabel.fontSize = secondlinebox.size.width/MAGICNUMBER
            secondlinebox.addChild(secondLabel)

For example, in order to localize it, we need the firstLabel.text = "She was born in the wilds and " and secondLabel.text = "raised by dragons. When dragons" to be in the same label.text. Our team has googled and tried everything we could, but nothing has worked yet. Do you have any ideas how to make them multilined using the same label?

Thank you so much!!

Best, Olivia
