g German translation

Thank you for this mod. I confused me aswell, but got used to it after many try and errors.

I would suggest the German version for it. Both (regular circuit connections and speaker) could be labeled with "Aktivieren wenn".

I am not sure if you use the term "alarm" in English more than just for "warn about a danger / alert". In German I only hear it for that reason. If you want to say it specifically for that, you could say "Alarmieren wenn", which translates to "alert when". With the speaker you could do more then just alerts, that's why I think both fits "Aktivieren wenn".

I'll try to implement it, "Aktivieren wenn" and "Alarmieren wenn". Also you're probably right about the "alarm" thing, I should maybe change it to "Alert when" in the ENG version too.

With the speaker you could do more then just alerts, that's why I think both fits "Aktivieren wenn".

Can you elaborate on this? What other function does it provide? Its main goal is to, well, alert the player when the condition is met.

Yes, that's the main function. Some people also use the speakers to play music, but that might just be an edge case. Maybe it's better to focus on the main thing it does, so go for the alert version.

What is German for "Play when"?

What is German for "Play when"?

In what context? "play" can have many translations in german.
When you mean it with the speaker you could say something like "Abspielen wenn" or "Wiedergeben wenn".

The standard translation for "to play" is "spielen". But "Spielen wenn" doesn't sound that good.

Just for the record, I'm not changing "Alert when" to "Play (sound) when", in any language. IMO "Alert when" describes the general function of the speaker perfectly i.e. to give alerts when something unfavorable is happening.
