[SOLVED] [1.12.2] <@Config.Comment> Localization

[Laike_Endaril]

We can use

@Config.LangKey

to specify lang keys for config setting / category names, but does the annotated config system have support for localization of config comments?

If so, what's the syntax of the reference and the lang key?

If not, how would you go about accomplishing this?

Figured it out by scraping through the tooltip render code.

In GuiConfigEntries.java:

            comment = I18n.format(configElement.getLanguageKey() + ".tooltip").replace("\\n", "\n");

 

So if you have a lang key defined for a config setting / category, then the proper lang key for the tooltip / comment for it is the same, but with .tooltip appended, eg.
 

dynamicstealth.config.serverSettings=Server Settings
dynamicstealth.config.serverSettings.tooltip=Server Settings Tooltip

This might be a good thing to note in the related forge documentation page, as it currently makes no mention of this functionality or the syntax for it.
