Address book name mismatch

While studying the Mod Guide EN, I noticed that the directory for translations should be named LANG, but in the mods and in the game itself the name TRALATIONS is used. Is this because of the different structure of the language files?

Thank you in advance for the explanation.

Hi, thanks for pointing this out! These are two different localization mechanisms.

Translations is the directory used by Captain of Industry’s built-in localization system and by mods that integrate with it directly. The lang directory is specific to MultiLangLib; the library loads these files itself from <Mod>/lang/<language>.json.

So the different folder name is intentional and not primarily related to the JSON structure. When using MultiLangLib, simply use the lang directory as described in the guide.

I hope this clears things up, and thank you for taking the time to read the guide!
