Grammar Paladin - Reupload

Have you ever played Kenshi, read characters' dialogue and wondered, "Damn, the guy that wrote this doesn't know what punctuation is?" Well, I did too. And then I set out a while back to start work on a mod to address that.

What this mod does is simple: It fixes many of the minor punctuation errors present in Kenshi, such as missing periods, question marks and exclamation marks. It also corrects a fair few spelling mistakes, such as "leviathyn" that were present in the game's dialogue. As well, it tweaks and streamlines some of the randomness of parentheses and brackets present in dialogue to make things more standardized and sensible. Most parentheses have been replaced with brackets, except in cases of cat amounts. Asterisks are now used solely with verbal sounds. For example:

[The man sizes you up] - Brackets are used to denote described actions.

(c.1,000) - Parentheses when used now denote amounts of money, such as when shown in gate check interactions.

*gulp* - Asterisks when used now describe audible sounds.

Do note, Grammar Paladin fixes these issues solely in the base game. However, I want to do patches for popular mods that I use at some point, and I might even do them on request. I spent cumulatively about 30 hours' worth of time reading essentially every single line of dialogue in the game, so it'll be after a break. C&C is definitely appreciated, and if you find some error in the base dialogue, please let me know when/where you encountered it and I'll try and fix it.

Hey, do you mind if I incorporate this into an overhaul I'm making, giving proper credit, of course? I was just embarking on this exact project myself, and since you've done the punctuation, that leaves me free to work on the spelling, grammar, and word swap precision. For instance, I've been creating separate word swaps for nouns preceded by the indefinite articles a and an (with easy to remember names, such as FOREIGNER and OUTLANDER for a and an respectively), which are dependent on spoken pronunciation rather than spelling, and thus impossible to code even if we had a scripting system.

Fair warning though, I intend to release the finished product as a modder's resource, granting full permission for re-use, because I'm sick and tired of people abusing apostrophes on plurals. So if you don't want me giving your work out to the whole internet, you should let me know.

God bless you for this. I would update the link on the discord too, only found this because of that.
