Fix AEBS Localisation (Save Our Station/Expanded Helicopter Events)

This mod fixes a relatively recent bug where the Automated Emergency Broadcast System strings are not localised successfully.

If you are using Expanded Helicopter Events or Save Our Station On a server then you want this mod. It serves no purpose for single-player, but it will also not cause any harm.

You can enable/disable this mod at will, at any time for new or existing games. If you are using Mod Manager, look for "Multiplayer AEBS i18n Hack"


At some point in 2022, the server-side code was modified and Translation strings were loaded before mods were.

This had the consequence of breaking getRadioText() for localisation strings in mods like Save our Station and Expanded Helicopter Events since the server will never load in their strings.

This mod is an incredibly trivial fix, but exists as a workshop item both for the convenience of users who want to fix unmaintained mods, to avoid unnecessary code duplication and unnecessary server load from copying the snippet everywhere and causing the startup process to reload the strings multiple times.

As a side-note, because it reloads all strings, it will fix anything localisation related that's server-side. The mod is just titled this way because AEBS is the most common manifestation of the problem.
