locale lore multiline not possible

[knniDE]

i would like to display the linked keys with a multiline in the lore. however, i have already tested several things. either it did not work or the lore was not completely visible.

I have done the following tests on my own:

link-key-lore: '&7linked to &e{0} \n &8[&7{1}&8]'

link-key-lore:
  - '&7linked to &e{0}'
  - '&8[&7{1}&8]'

link-key-lore: | 
  &7linked to &e{0}
  &8[&7{1}&8]

link-key-lore: |-
  &7linked to &e{0}
  &8[&7{1}&8]

link-key-lore: >
  &7linked to &e{0}
  &8[&7{1}&8]

link-key-lore: >-
  &7linked to &e{0}
  &8[&7{1}&8]

At the 1st attempt no error came but \n was displayed in the lore ingame.
With the 2nd example an error came because of YAML formatting.
In the other examples only the 1st line was displayed. The 2nd was not visible / present.

Can you help me? or does the function not yet exist? ^^

I suppose the function you are looking for does not exist yet. Something like this wasn't really added since the localization files weren't really meant to be something you build functionality off of. Had that been the case there might've been placeholder tokens such as %WARP_NAME% or %DISTANCE_TO% as well to enable some advanced behaviors.

On Paper's side, I think it does not work the way you expect because it likely takes in a list or array of strings for the lore list rather than using line breaks. As unfortunate as it is, I don't know if it is worth it to dedicate the time to this since localization files were not really meant to be used in this way.

That said, if you would like to make a PR to the repository for the functionality, I'm willing to consider it should the solution be elegant enough. Let me know if you need any info on where to look if you decide to go through with that. Thanks!

Well, it's not that important. I would find it personally only nicer to format this so. ^^

That's fair, I'll probably leave this issue open either way so people could contribute to improving this part of the plugin should it be a quality-of-life change that is commonly requested later.
