\nAvailable:
\n– English (lang_en)
\n– German (lang_de)<\/p>\n
\nWhen you update the plugin, the selected file will automatically update.<\/p>\n
\n> The first time you start the server with the new language file, the file will automatically have the English translation in it, so you can add your language more easily.<\/p>\n
\n– Make a new file, e.g., `lang_fr.json` (or any name you like).
\n– This file will later contain all the texts for your server in your chosen language.<\/p>\n
\n– Open `config.yml` and set the language to the name of your file **without the `.json` extension**.
\n– Example:
\n“`language: lang_fr“`<\/p>\n
\n– **Important:** Do not change the structure of the JSON file.<\/p>\n
\n\/position reload
\n“`<\/p>\n
\n### Track Command<\/p>\n
\n\/position **group** create
\n\u26a0\ufe0f Notice: If permission is removed from Group, it is recommended to remove this permission as well<\/p>\n
\nThese statistics help the developer understand how the plugin is used (e.g., server version, player count) and improve future updates.<\/p>\n
\n– You can disable metrics at any time by editing the `\/plugins\/bStats\/config.yml`.<\/p>\n
