Meth Helper Updated

An updated version of Kangaroo's Meth Helper.
It's a bit over-engineered, but that's what I like to do.

About This Mod

This mod deciphers Bain or Locke's incompetent meth-cooking instructions on Rats, Cook-Off, and Lab Rats, as well as Border Crystals (new in U198).

Meth Helper Updated can display the following information:

The name of the correct meth ingredient to be put in
When an ingredient has been successfully added
When a batch of meth has been completed
When the wrong ingredient has been added

Each of these pieces of information can be set to display individually in several different ways:

Send to all players (Public Message)
Send only to yourself (Private Message)
Show as a "hint" onscreen which disappears after a few seconds

You can also choose to enable/disable the mod with a keybind of your choosing, or in the menu. In addition, you may choose to allow this mod to repeat the name of the correct ingredient until you put it in. All of these options are available in the mod options for Meth Helper Updated. All settings changes will take place immediately.

Meth Helper will not cause you to be marked as a cheater.

This mod has auto-updates through BeardLib, if BeardLib is installed (optional).

Creating Translation Files

Here's how to create translations for other languages:

Start by copying any other localization file from the Meth Helper Updated/loc/ directory, such as en.txt, for you to modify.
Rename it- it is strongly preferred that you name it according to your desired language's official language key, for consistency and to prevent name conflicts with other language files.
Open this localization file and change the localizations.

For example, it will look like this:
"methhelperupdated_language_name" : "English",
You only want to change the things on the RIGHT-HAND SIDE of the colon character, :, for example "English". Make sure not to remove any enclosing quotation mark characters "" or any trailing comma characters ,.

When you have made your changes, launch the game and switch to your new language. It will appear automatically in the list. Changes to the menu text will not be made until you close the mod options menu and re-open it.
After you have tested your changes and verified that they work, you can send them to me. Please upload translation files to pastebin.com, and share the link with me- preferably via this site's private messages.
