🌐 Language & Right-to-Left (RTL)

The loading screen, the in-browser Config Builder, and the Build with AI assistant are fully localized. Pick the language your community speaks and the whole experience follows, including full right-to-left layout for Arabic and Urdu.

Supported languages

Code Language Direction
en English (US) — default LTR
en-GB English (UK) LTR
es Español (Spanish) LTR
de Deutsch (German) LTR
fr Français (French) LTR
ar العربية (Arabic) RTL
ur اردو (Urdu) RTL

English (US) is the default and the fallback: if a translation is ever missing, the English text is shown rather than a blank or a raw key.

Setting the loading-screen language

Add a top-level language field to your config.json. Every player connecting to your server sees the loading screen in that language.

{
    "language": "ar",
    "selectedColor": "#7C3AED",
    "...": "rest of your config"
}
  • Set it to any code from the table above.
  • For ar or ur the screen automatically switches to right-to-left layout.
  • If language is missing or not recognized, the screen stays English (LTR) — so existing configs from older versions keep working unchanged.

Building in the Config Builder?

You usually do not need to edit this by hand. The builder sets language for you (see below).

In the Config Builder and AI assistant

Open the Config Builder or Build with AI:

  • The interface auto-detects your browser language on first visit.
  • A Language option in the settings (gear) menu lets you switch at any time, and your choice is remembered.
  • The AI assistant replies in your language — describe your server in Arabic, Spanish, German, etc. and it answers in kind.
  • Every field has a localized help hint: click the small ℹ️ info icon next to a label to reveal a short "how to fill this" explanation inline, in your language. Click again to hide it.
  • When you export, the language you are building in is written into your config.json automatically, so the loading screen ships in the same language. You can always change the language field afterward.

About non-English translations

The interface translations are AI generated and reviewed, and may not be perfect. The Language menu notes this, and the Terms and Conditions are provided in English, which is the authoritative version.

Right-to-left text (Arabic & Urdu)

Setting the language to ar or ur makes the text render correctly right-to-left in each component, while keeping the screen's normal layout:

  • Each piece of text (chrome and your own content) is shown in its natural direction. Arabic/Urdu reads right-to-left and right-aligns; Latin text stays left-to-right.
  • An Arabic/Urdu font is bundled with the resource, so text renders correctly even if the player's machine has no Arabic font installed.
  • Your own content (rules, team names, panel text) is shown as you wrote it, in the correct direction.

Language does not move the panels or watermark - it only fixes the text. The screen keeps its normal layout.

Keyboard

The keyboard overlay adapts to your language automatically:

  • Key-cap labels (Shift, Enter, Ctrl, etc.) are translated. The keys never change size for longer translations, so the layout never breaks.
  • Physical layout follows the language: German shows QWERTZ, French shows AZERTY, and the rest use QWERTY. The letters sit where that language's real keyboard puts them.

If you ever want to pin a specific key-cap language regardless of language, the keyboardShortcuts.locale field still works as an override. In the Config Builder you no longer type key names by hand: click a keybind's key field and press the actual key on your keyboard, and it is filled in for you. See Keyboard Overlay.

What is and isn't translated

  • Translated: all of the product's own interface text — buttons, labels, status text, dialogs, the AI assistant's replies.
  • Not translated: the content you write — your server rules, team member names and roles, social card text, track titles, panel entries. Those stay exactly as you enter them (and display correctly in RTL).

Adding a language

The architecture is built so a new language is a single file. If you would like to contribute one (or request one), reach out on the community Discord — a new locale is one translation file plus one line in the locale registry, with no other code changes.
