[Forge 1.10.2] How to make new line in the language file.

[lethinh]

Hi everyone. I am having problems that I don't know how to make new line in the language file. I tried with \n but didn't work. Here is my language file:

tooltip.multiplerelations.animal_converter=Uses to convert the\nanimals into spawn eggs.\nDoesn't keep NBT Data!

By default, .lang files do not support escape characters. If you want escape characters to be parsed, you need to add #PARSE_ESCAPES to your lang file. #PARSE_ESCAPES should be the only thing on its line.

Alternatively you can set up your langfile with a markup code and do some regex when you go to display text.

I sort of do that here (although that particular one is intended to either be displayed as ♥ or not, in its entirety).

Why would you do that? This is pointless work

The point was to allow the display to be customizable because lang files are resource-pack-capable.

You mean as:

effect.hearts=\0x2665

?

Orr...?

Cool. Could have used that four years ago, oh well.

There are a lot of things I don't know. I didn't start programming on Java so I generally take what I do know and make it work, it isn't until later that someone says, "hey, there's an easier way."
