How the mod picks a language

The server language is set by the localization.language key in config.json (for example ru_ru). The mod loads data/lang/<code>.json from the jar, applies the admin's edits from config/neoessentials/languages/custom/<code>.json on top, and takes anything missing in the chosen language from en_us. So an incomplete translation does not break output — some lines simply stay in English.

The percentages in the table above are the share of en_us keys that have a translation; they are computed when the site is built, from the same files that ship in the jar.

Your own translations

To fix individual lines without touching the mod's files:

/language template ru_ru        create a template in languages/custom/
/language override set <key> <text>   override one line on the fly
/language override list         list all overrides
/language reload                reload the language files

A file in languages/custom/ is an overlay, not a replacement: keys it does not contain keep coming from the translation in the jar. Because of this, a partial or outdated custom file cannot hide a complete translation that arrived with a mod update.

What you must not change in strings

A translation must keep the service fragments, otherwise chat output breaks:

Fragment	What it is	Rule
`§a`, `§c`, `§l`	Minecraft colour and style codes	keep all of them, in the same order and position
`{0}`, `{1}`	argument substitution	keep all of them, with the same numbers
`{player}`, `{server_name}`	named placeholders	do not translate
`<gradient:…>`, `<rainbow>`	formatting tags	do not translate
`''`	escaped MessageFormat quote	keep it doubled

A single quote ' in a string that contains {0} swallows the substitution — this is the most common reason "why {0} is printed instead of the player's name".
