No "i" in Objective...

Everyone who has ever opened the game in the last four years has read that message. I am amazed this has gone unnoticed so long!
Well spotted, thanks mate.

Hi Ryan I saw this was fixed in the recent patch but was not updated in my mod from before the patch. How can I update and fix in my mod? On that note is there anything else I need to update as it looks like all engine changes and I would think not? Thanks!

Ctrl+F the popups language tags file in the scripts, search for 'Objectve' and update all instances to 'Objective' and save it.

Fairly sure that's the only campaign change I've done in quite some time now.

Sorry maybe I am misunderstanding but pressing Ctrl F in the editor does nothing for me? Is this in the Events Scripts?

That's right, open the Event script files and then use the find function (Ctrl F).

Have you drilled down to the language files, as I think that is where BNC is saying the change should be made?

So within the Events folder there are four other folders, one for each language. Within them are files for each script type.

Hi Bill I see how to get to these folders in the scenario folder but not the editor? So I can fix in my campaigns folder thanks for clearing up! Now how to find these language folders in the editor?

Location is here:

Short answer is that you cannot open these files via the Editor.
