This project uses MiniMessage for its translations, a rich text format for Minecraft. MiniMessage uses tags like <red>, <bold> to apply coloring and decorations to text. Tags can also have arguments, delimited by :.

• Always leave the name of the tag the same, these must stay the same for the message to work.
• Text inside of tag arguments should be translated when necessary. If the translated text contains colons (:) or other special characters, you should make sure to wrap it inside of single or double quotes (' or ") to make sure it can still be parsed properly.
• Some messages may contain more complex placeholders, such as different text depending on the number of options:
  • Boolean (true or false, yes or no) formatters:
    • Can typically be recognized by having an "is" prefix, but not always. Always has two arguments, one for true, the other for false.
    • Example: <is_joining:join:leave> will show different text depending on the value of is_joining. The first argument will be used if it's true, and the other if it's false.
    • Number formatters:
      • Mainly used for handling plurals, has a more complex syntax but is also quite powerful.
      • Syntax:
        • <number>#: Match this option if the given number is exactly equal to this.
        • <number><: Match this option if the given number is less than this.
        • | is used to deliminate between options.
    • Examples:
      • I saw <count:'0#no bears|1#one bear|1<many bears'>.
      • I've got <arg:0> item<count:'1#|1<s'>.
• Confused what something is supposed to mean? Check first to see if the translation has a description attached to it with an explanation, otherwise the best way to get into contact is to join the Discord and ask in the "Help Translate the server!" forum post.
