How does the mod translate messages?

Message Interception – The ChatHud.addMessage() mixin intercepts all incoming chat messages.

Text Extraction – Parses the message, separating the player name from the text:

hello → Player: “Player”, text: “hello”

HTTP Request to Google Translate – Sends an asynchronous GET request:

https://translate.googleapis.com/translate_a/single?client=gtx&sl=auto&tl=ru&dt=t&q=hello

sl=auto – autodetect source language

tl=ru – disable language (your selected one)

q=hello – text to translate

JSON Response Parsing – Extracts the translated text from Google’s JSON response
Add to Chat – Adds a new message with the translation:

Original: , hello!

Translation: привет
