Pie Menu Fix for Maxis Cheap Telescope in all non-English languages
LdDarcy_PieMenuFix_TelescopeCheap_FT.jpg - width=570 height=618

EAxis stupidly messed up the order of local pie menu in cheap telescope. Instead of translated text, default English text will be displayed for "Watch for UFOs" function in all non-English languages.
With this fix installed, "Watch for UFOs" pie menu in Maxis cheap telescope will be correctly translated into all non-English languages.
Not needed if you're playing in English.

Now part of Pie Menu Text Strings Fix, which also fixes similar problems in other objects.

About Me
I have my own section at MATY now. Visit DarcyLand for some more goodies that are not available in MTS2.
Check this MATY thread for AL compatibility of my hacks. All my mods are now confirmed to be compatible with AL, or updated to AL.
Recently I'm getting a lot of PMs asking how to update various custom objects like fridges or computers up to FreeTime.
I wrote a tutorial for updating custom fridges and computers to FreeTime. For other types of objects, go read this MATY thread where a lot of information is gathered. A similar thread for AL is here.
==============================================================================
Basically, you can do whatever you want with my creations, as long as they stay free. You can upload them to other free sites, include them in lots or Sims, modify them if you want.
Please make a link back to my original MTS2 threads, in case I update my past creations. If you're reuploading my mods to other sites, please keep them up to date. Check my MTS2 journal for updates of past creations..
My only 2 restrictions are:
- Do NOT upload them to PAY sites (including TSR) and Exchange.
- Don't claim them as your own.
