It's hard coded. The weapons they drop are not the weapons in the entity bank, they're the player weapons in your files/gamecore/guns folder, these don't use scripts, there are various variables that can be changed in their gunspec files, but i don't think that would be one of them.

It is hardcoded in G-Entity.cpp line 2289 in the GG source code.
You need to recompile GG to change it. Sry

Can you script a (player gets near weapon), then print "press 'e' to pickup __x__ weapon"
in Arabic? It could appear directly above the English text, and in slightly larger letters, then
it would look like caption. Another idea would be to put a pic/ sprite of the writing that would
cover the engine writing.

So I'm asking if there is a call to find the location (x,y,z) coordinates to weapons,
and compare player to that. I'm sure there is an entity location and get entity name.
Is it so for weapon?- you experts?

Sorry to say it appears not. The weapons don't even show up using ray casting instructions so I'm not sure how you could even detect that they are there from Lua.

Presumably they are 'objects' but not 'entities' so there doesn't appear to be any way of finding the position of them when dropped.

If it is possible to turn off the automatic engine dropping of collectable weapons then maybe you could replace it with a custom weapon drop system.

Edited to add: I think the cantakeweapon parameter if set to 0 will get rid of the text but then you won't be able to take the weapon and I'm not sure how to make the weapon that is dropped disappear.
Been there, done that, got all the T-Shirts!
