I'm trying to update my Python script mod... again. This time, I need to use some strings from the game (e.g. a string for "Llama" or "Rabbit"), preferably so that those words would change according to installed game language. So I need to somehow address game strings resources via Python script, and that's where I'm stuck. All relevant tutorials talk about using and changing STBLs for .packages, but I'm not sure how and if at all it is possible without creating a .package. Any advice would be appreciated

Most of the time if you want your strings to be localized, you'll need to add them to the string tables in a .package file and then reference them from your script.

The code below creates a reference to a string's instance id in your STBL. You are never able to actually see the raw string from the package in python. The ID will be passed to the client to be read from the package.

You can however pass raw strings to the client, but they will not be localized to the game's language:
