Dynamic Replacements
What are dynamic replacements used for?
Dynamic replacements are used as placeholder values for parts of messages. They can be combined to create your own custom messages in message templates and custom alert messages.
Dynamic replacements are replaced with the value from message_templates.json, which is then used to style the message and fill out the parameters defined by the placeholder values.
{shiny} -> fetch "shiny" value from message_templates.json -> receive markup <c col=#78CBFF>Shiny </c> -> replace {shiny}
with final markup <c col=#78CBFF>Shiny </c>
{level} -> fetch "level" value from message_templates.json -> receive translation key "cobblemon-spawn-alerts.level"
-> fetch translation for key "cobblemon-spawn-alerts.level" -> receive markup "<c col=#AAAAAA>(Lvl. %s) </c>" ->
replace placeholder %s with level 5 -> replace {level} with final markup "<c col=#AAAAAA>(Lvl. 5) </c>"
