Messages & Language

Every line a player sees lives in lang.yml. Nothing is hardcoded, so you can reword, translate, or recolour any of it. Run /dq reload after editing.

Colours

Both classic & codes and hex like #ff0000 work anywhere in a message, through TheAPI. Set any message to an empty string "" to switch it off completely with no blank spam.

prefix: "&8[&6Quests&8] &7"
quest-completed: "&aQuest done: &f%quest%&a! Reward is yours."

Placeholders in messages

Some lines fill in values for you. Use them where the default text does:
