Messages & translations

MachineEngine has no messages.yml. Player-facing text — chat messages, item lore, the settings menu — is a CraftEngine translation, shown on each player's client in their own Minecraft language.

The text lives in:

plugins/CraftEngine/resources/machineengine/configuration/lang.yml
lang:
  en_us:
    machineengine.machine.chunk_limit:
      '<red>This chunk already holds %s machines (limit %s).'
    machineengine.lore.energy: '<gray>Energy: %s / %s %s'
  fr_fr:
    machineengine.machine.chunk_limit:
      '<red>Ce chunk contient déjà %s machines (limite %s).'
  • Colors: MiniMessage tags.
  • Arguments: %s, in order; %1$s, %2$s to reorder them.
  • Languages: English and French ship by default. Add a section per Minecraft language code (de_de, es_es …).
  • Updates never overwrite this file. Delete it and restart to get the new keys and languages back (your edits are lost; copy them first).

After editing, run /ce reload all so CraftEngine rebuilds the resource pack.

Players without the resource pack see the English text built into MachineEngine.

Menu text​

Machine menu titles and button names are in the zMenu files in plugins/MachineEngine/menus/ — see Machine menus. Addons ship their own translations (Mekanized's are in plugins/CraftEngine/resources/mekanized/).
