some more strings translated - but I think there's sth wrong with the diff, it seems very long to me for just a couple of changes?

i don't like the translation kampfschiff - a dropship is no kampfschiff - "Raptor-Klasse Einsatzschiff" would be better imo (the same is true for the firebird and maybe other dropships you changed)

I called it "Kampf-Transporter" (not Kampfschiff which would be wrong indeed) - literally translated from "combat transport" - because "Einsatzschiff" was used for "dropship" and I wanted to preserve that distinction like it is in the original.
I didn't change other, only one inconsistency - there was one line with a different name IIRC, so I changed it to be like the other texts.

Anyway, since the Raptor isn't mentioned much, I can change it to "Einsatzschiff" quickly if you lile it better...

the point is, that it still is a dropship - so it should be the same naming schema as for the firebird or other dropships, too.

2nd revision

well then, I've attached a new version of the patch (again it is HUGE - why?).
2 more remarks:
- in UFOPAEDIA the dropship is sometimes translated as "Landungsschiff". Should this be changed, too?
- to have the same naming scheme and avoid misunderstandings like now, the english original description of the Raptor should also be changed to "dropship". This applies to all other ship types as well (haven't checked if there are inconsistencies at all).
====== tlh2000 (2009-11-03 05:53:48) ======

the raptor is called "Raptor-class Dropship" in the english text - at least that's how it is printed on http://ufoai.ninex.info/wiki/index.php/List_of_msgid/Aircraft (the text is not yet finished)

The names of the firebird should be unified all over the place (this is also true for every other ship). The name that is printed in the above posted link "Firebird-Klasse Landungsschiff" should be used - but of course some locations may just use the Firebird as a synonym. But that really depends on how the context in the text is. If it's only about a "Landungsschiff", we have to check whether the text applies to all dropships, or to a specific one. If the latter is the case and we don't want to write the full name, we can just use the short version (like "Firebird").

Applied to trunk - thanks
