Oolite Italiano

• Another_Commander's translation (2013) for v.1.77

Russian

• Website (mostly 2012): search for " Roolite.org " This is the best (and currently only) language site, a partial duplicate of this one, dated, but with a current forum/bulletin board and with Russian translations of old version OXPs such as PlanetFall.
• There are 2 OXPs - by CatSam (2009) and by RadCapricorn (2009). Roolite states that CatSam did a better job (words don't creep over each other).

CatSam's translation

• Mr Gimlet in Russian (by Stranger, 2020)

Languages in the Ooniverse

• The peculiarities of Thargoid language may be due to faults in the translation.

Programming Languages

There is the language of the code of the Vanilla game, and then there are the languages of the OXPs.

For the Vanilla game code languages see the bottom-right corner
