SI Strings

This is the second time this week I have run into this. Out of curiosity does anyone know why this does not match the localizegeneratedstrings.lua ?

localizegeneratedstrings.lua

Lua Code:

"[eng] Assign to Slot <<1>>", -- SI_SKILL_ABILITY_ASSIGN_TO_SLOT

Lua Code:

local temp = zo_strformat(SI_SKILL_ABILITY_ASSIGN_TO_SLOT, 1)
d(temp)
 
--output: Add to Slot 1

Why does it say "Add" instead of "Assign"

This happened to me a few days ago with another string that did not match, but I can't remember which one it was.

I guess. A bug in the generator ? ^^ Maybe a bad reference.

The strings in localizegeneratedstrings.lua are not the actual translations, but just some placeholders. There are a lot of them that do not match the actual output.
The strings that are used ingame are stored in a different lua file that is located in the eso.mnf archives.

I had noticed that message in the file, but still thought it should be regenerating the same code.
Oh well I was just curious. Thanks for the replies!
