Change National Languages (WOTC)

Description
By default, any nation that doesn't have its language in the localization file simply uses the language of the game currently played in. For many players, this means a LOT of nations will sound American.

This mod allows players to set each nation's language to whatever they wish, for new recruits.

Mod number is 1137646645.

@HeMeK It defaults to setting the languages for the countries whose languages the dub has already covered, but all other nations default to the players' default language.

This mod is not needed as it is part of the game

@SmoliFemboi There is, but it only applies to certain nations where there has been localization for the audio (such as French for both France and Belgium, Spanish for Spain and Mexico, etc). All other nations use the user's default language (for most people, this means American English). This makes it so that many more nations use other languages, even if they don't quite make sense.

There's literally an option in the settings for this.

Good idea for a mod but I was riddled to see the Netherlands had French set as their "new" language (I had expected we would get German as it is close related to Dutch). But 95% of us speak/understand English here though and at most, maybe 10% remember a bit of school French (which is not so close related to Dutch at all).
Though I use a lot of extra Nationalities and Language mods (including Dutch/Chinese/Japanese/Russian etc.) so I can set the mod to use those instead, so thank you for that.

@cthulhuftw It shows. Just open the INI files with notepad. Then you'll see which country has which language it will use upon creating a new soldier for each country. By default it just goes to American English without the mod. With the mod I've made it use various other languages, but you can change them to your liking accordingly.

@RainingMetal I don't know anything about code, I'm a total noob to this, is it possible to have step by step instructions?

@cthulhuftw Then all you need to do is change the string in the +Language variable to whatever you want it to be whenever you make new recruits under each nation. It's not hard.

@RainingMetal I got to that part already, its exactly how you do the changes exactly

@cthulhuftw Go into your steam directory. Under steamapps/workshop/content/268500, go into the folder 1137646645. Inside the Config folder open up XComGameBoard.ini. You can adjust the default languages from there.
