What's the problem with the localization file?

[Infinitas64]

This is my localization file (en_us.json).

{
  "item.modid.cobblestone_nugget": "Cobblestone nugget"
}

However, the name wasn't showed in game, and IntelliJ tells me "Translation key not included in default localization file".
What is the "default localization file", and how do I include the key in it?

Where is the file in your Project located?

I would highly recommend to use Datageneration for the data stuff (see: https://forge.gemwire.uk/wiki/Datageneration).

It is located at resources/assets/(modid)/lang/

Surely it is possible to just write the json files?

You need to put the modid of your mod and not the literal text "modid". Or did you just sanitize the modid before putting it here because you don't want to reveal your modid? 🤭

Another thing that could be the problem, you might need to refresh the project in your IDE if you externally modified the lang file. I know this is true for Eclipse at least, not sure about IntelliJ.

I edited it in the IntelliJ project. And then it gives me this notification.

Aha, so you are using some kind of plugin for Minecraft modding for IntelliJ? Either way, en_us is the default localization file, so maybe the path is wrong somehow after all?
