The localization.yml file in each car’s folder is responsible for translating interface elements specific to that model: the car control menu and the trunk header.
Important: Global plugin messages (chat messages, errors, help) are configured in the plugins/CoolCars/lang/ folder. The file in the car folder is only for the GUI of that specific model.

​
Control Menu (car.menu)

This section configures button names and hints in the GUI that opens when the interaction key (default F) is pressed. 
car:
  menu:
    localization:
      en:
        title: "&8Car Menu"
        engine-on: "&aEngine: ON"
        engine-off: "&cEngine: OFF"
        lights-on: "&eHeadlights: ON"
        lights-off: "&7Headlights: OFF"
        trunk: "&6Open trunk"
        toggle-hint: "&7Click to toggle"
      ru:
        title: "&8Меню автомобиля"
        engine-on: "&aДвигатель: ВКЛ"
        engine-off: "&cДвигатель: ВЫКЛ"
        lights-on: "&eФары: ВКЛ"
        lights-off: "&7Фары: ВЫКЛ"
        trunk: "&6Багажник"
        toggle-hint: "&7Нажмите, чтобы переключить"

​
Trunk (car.trunk)

You can configure the trunk inventory header. 
car:
  trunk:
    use-lang-title: true        # Whether to use localization for the title
    title: "Trunk"              # Default title
    localization:
      en:
        title: "&8Vehicle Trunk"
      ru:
        title: "&8Багажник автомобиля"

​
Global Localization (lang/)

If you want to change system messages (e.g., refueling or help text), you need to edit the files in plugins/CoolCars/lang/en.yml or ru.yml.

​
System String Examples:

  • fuel.started: Message when refueling starts.
  • repair.complete: Message when repair is successful.
  • actionbar.car: Status bar format above the hotbar.
You can use the /lang server <en|ru> command to instantly switch the server’s primary language and synchronize documentation.
