MarinaandGitHub fcaa0b24db Alphabetized, fixed spelling error, clarifying event descriptions. Polish (#69707)
About The Pull Request

Alphabetized several long lists of strings so its easier for us to look through them, just code polish, nothing the players would see.

Fixed some minor spelling errors as well.

Clarified door bolt state to be less ambiguous in the door wiring gui.
Originally it would say the door bolts have fallen, and the door bolts "Look up". i dont know about you but that was very not clear for me to read. Like where are the bolts? In the door or the frame? Arnt there bolts on top and bottom? Just didn't make sense to me.

Now it says "Have engaged!" & "Have disengaged"
hopefully that makes the state clearer at a glance.

I also added a small handful of funny texts to some string files. See changelog
Why It's Good For The Game
