Translating your pack

Plain text shows as-is in every language. Lang keys let each language have its own.

#Lang keys

Use a lang key instead of text for any title, description or checklist label:

"title": "my_pack.adv.found_map.title",
"description": "my_pack.adv.found_map.desc"

Ship texts/*.lang files in your resource pack, one per language:

## texts/en_US.lang
my_pack.adv.found_map.title=X Marks the Spot
my_pack.adv.found_map.desc=Pick up an explorer map

## texts/de_DE.lang
my_pack.adv.found_map.title=X markiert die Stelle
my_pack.adv.found_map.desc=Heb eine Entdeckerkarte auf

Also list the languages in texts/languages.json: ["en_US", "de_DE"].

#Discord

Discord posts are in English. When you use lang keys, give BedrockAdvancements the English text: "english": { "my_pack.adv.found_map.title": "X Marks the Spot" } on any ba:tab or ba:advancement, or BA.english({...}) in a script plugin.

The creator does all of this for you: it writes the keys, the English and a .lang file for every language.
