New encounter drones do not broadcast any messages if the game language is not Eng.
Reported
New encounter drones do not broadcast any messages if the game language is set to anything other than English.
Exemple videos :
- Test 1 : game language set to English, broadcast message work
- Test 2 : game language set to French, broadcast message don't work
I think the problem comes from the automatic renaming of unmodified blocks when the game language changes.
The Event Controller doesn't recognize the renamed blocks (in this case, the Broadcast Controller).
See 'Image 1' for the Event Controller menu in English, and 'Image 2' for the same menu in French.
You can see that the actions are correctly configured in Image 1, and grayed out in Image 2.
I have the same bug

I think the same problem exists in the case of Factorum's encounter with disarming warheads. Messages do not appear when the language is other than eng.

After some testing, I found that changing the block name is not the cause of the bug.
It seems that the problem comes from the "transmit message X" (1 to 8) actions.
The bug also affects other blocks where you can set actions in, not only Event Controller.
I only tested with the Event Controller, Timer Block, Button Panel, and a Cockpit, but I was able to reproduce the bug each time.
I've attached some images of the tests:
In these images, the "transmit message" action from both a Broadcast Controller and a renamed Broadcast Controller were set in the action bar with the game in English (actions 1 and 2), French (actions 4 and 5), and German (actions 7 and 8).
I changed the game language in the menu before each test.
I also tested what happens if you change the game language directly during gameplay, without returning to the main menu.
You can see the result in image 4, where the game was launched in English and then changed to French. Actions 1 and 2 (set in English) still work, but the others do not.
You can find a build to test the bug at this link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3477187094
The other Broadcast Controller actions like "Send random message" and "Send GPS" seem to work correctly.
This bug seems to affect the Broadcast Controller on all builds, not just in Encounters.
