Rocket blueprints say "rocket" as in singular, implying you are making one rocket, but they make three.  If bullet blueprints say "bullets" and bolts say "bolts", then rockets should say "rockets".

Talking to briggs about jet skis, if you say "Jet skis?", he says:

"I don't know if you call them here differently, but I'm talking about single-seat jet-propelled vessels. You've seen them at the dock."

should be "call them something different here"

When meeting Archibald Knight, officer in the second dialogue option should be plural. "I'd say there are finer officers here than me, but thank you."

the dialogue a couple lines later could be smoother as, "It's horrible. I have all this! He gestures Look! Power, wealth, everything I want! Yet, I lost the most precious thing, and with it, everything."

Also, the Praetorian Caped Peacekeeper's description capitalizes zoner in "resident Zoner" when it shouldn't. The scapular version is uncapitalized.

The sprite composition button in video settings says "Allows to displaying"
it should just be "Allows displaying"

1) '...elevated section of the pipe which you sucessfully...' > successfully (Camera Problems quest, lurker variant, stinky pipe interaction).
2) '...when they were surroundin' you island...' > your.
3) 'Machete' is plural in the blueprint menu for some reason. Probably because the description starts with 'machetes'? Anyway, should be singular.

Now with strings for localization having been extracted into plain text files, trivial spellchecking became easier. So I made a pass over "data/localization/template/knowledge":

hiteffects.txt
  • ::RustingAcidSplash: posession -> possession
itemblueprints.txt
  • ::energyShieldEmitter: enchancement. -> enhancement.

  • ::StrangeShack: Caverns. -> Caverns?
