Request for i18n Support to Simplify Language Localization ProcesIs

[numakkiyu]

While using this mod, I noticed that the current version does not provide support for i18n (internationalization) when editing language files. This lack of support means that translating other language files requires recompiling NBT files, which significantly increases the complexity and inconvenience of the translation process.

Thank you for your suggestion!

Implementing such functionality would require a lot work to the mapping system which might not be worth the effort considering the complexities involved. For example how would you indicate which player should have which translations?

Chat component translation mappings are already stored as simple JSON file in ViaBackwards, see here. Additionally, entity/item/block name mappings can be edited easily with a NBT Editor like ImNbt

Ultimately, a server that truly needs something like this can implement it themselves.
