LocalCraft is a must have when you're running a multi-language server. LocalCraft allows automatic chat translation for each logged in player! This means that when an english user sends a message and there is also a dutch player online, then it will translate the original english message to dutch after which it is sent to the dutch player. The plugin will also work for most other languages. Look at the compatibility page for more languages.

Inspiration

The plugin that inspired me was BabelCraft, which has the same functionality but is outdated unfortunately. So, here I bring you the future of Minecraft localization!

Installation

Visit the Installation page here. The plugin does not work out of the box. Some actions need to be taken to get the plugin to work.

Features

1. Fast, almost no lag (this also depends on server internet speed)
2. Multithreaded, so the plugin is able to process many messages at once
3. Chat cache, so the plugin will only translate messages to a language once, and if the same translation is required later on, it will still know the earlier translation, so it won't have to translate twice
4. Players can toggle their own translation state
5. Some configuration options
6. Character counter, so you can keep an eye on your monthly limit

Commands

• /lc get enabled - Displays whether translation is enabled for you.
• /lc get language - Displays your currently set language.
• /lc get statistics - Displays how many characters have been translated, and if you've reached the limit. (OPS ONLY)
• /lc set enabled <false | true> - Disables or enables translation for you.
• /lc set language {LANGUAGE} - Sets your language to a supported language. All messages you receive will be displayed in this language.
• /lc set statistics count {COUNT} - Sets your your current character count. (OPS ONLY)
• /lc set statistics limit {LIMIT} - Sets your monthly character translation limit, if any. (OPS ONLY)
• /lc set statistics date {DD/MM/YYYY} - Sets the next date at which the plugin will reset the character limit. Format: DD/MM/YYYY. (OPS ONLY)

Future additions

• Add more documentation
• Permission support
• Automatic translation of plugin messages
• Automatically detect language based on IP

Server requirements

• The server must have the JRE 7 or higher installed

Known bugs/issues

• None

Incompatible plugins

• Any plugins that modify the chat format somehow. These plugins will never be compatible, because of the way this plugin works.

FAQ

Q: Why isn't anything translated for me?

A: You must have your language set and translation enabled for anything to be translated to your language. If you have, and still nothing is being translated, please submit a ticket.

Q: Why did the plugin stop translating messages and started to spit out error messages?

A: You have probably reached your monthly translation limit set by Microsoft. OPS can use a command to check if they've reached that limit.
