Strings loader¶

Folder: RuneSchema/mods/<ModName>/strings/

Source-text replacement within global or named scopes.

Strings replace matching source text globally or within a named table.

{
  "DT_SomeTextTable": {
    "Old text": "New text"
  }
}

A replacement may also be a list where the loader supports multiple results. Exact source text matters. Later loaded replacements win within the same scope. This loader does not patch string-table keys.
