BIS_fnc_localize also checks if it the input string isLocalized while localize will return an empty string if the input parameter is not localized.
Description

Syntax
localizationString call BIS_fnc_localize
Parameters:
localizationString: String
Returns: String - the localized text behind the key or the key itself (if not localized).
Examples
Example 1

// assuming the stringtable does not contain a key "STR_anotherString"
"STR_anotherString" call BIS_fnc_localize; // returns "STR_anotherString"
