There are more than just a "Chinese name" to consider as there is simplied and traditional deviding the population. And not to mention words that are exclusive to Mandarin Chinese, Cantonese Chinese and Taiwanese Chinese.
It's supposed to be the games name on distribution platforms which can only be a single name, for localisation we only offer simplified chinese afaik.
You could do one iron, 1 copper.
That's the intended way to do it currently.
I mean, it's in the files somewhere, it is surely possible to dig it out and make it load in a server conventionally?
It's interesting that it has stuff moving about autonomously, is that some scripting going on that could be used in future for game mechanics or just loading the models manually and inserting them in the menu scene?
No, it's a premade scene.
