# Translating

Every text is in a file you can edit:

* chat messages and status words: `plugins/EdMortars/messages.yml`;
* mortar names, upgrade names, requirement displays, hologram lines, explosion message: `mortars/<id>.yml`;
* menu titles, names and lore: `plugins/PinnaPrison/guis/EdMortars/*.yml`.

Translate them in place for a server in one language.

## Per-player languages (optional)

With the EdLang addon installed, any text may hold `%lang_<key>%` keys: menus, messages, holograms and placeholder outputs are then shown in each player's own language (holograms are built once per language, never per player). Without EdLang nothing changes and the texts are shown as written.
