The bug
The following keys incorrectly refer to the concept of game modes using the spelling "gamemode" (single word):
Translation key | Incorrect value (en_us) | Notes |
---|---|---|
| F3 + N = Cycle previous gamemode <-> spectator | |
| Unable to switch gamemode; no permission | |
| Players with gamemode | See also MC-128972 |
For context, here are the strings that use the correct spelling:
Translation key | Correct value (en_us) |
---|---|
| Your game mode has been updated to %s |
| Game Mode |
| F3 + F4 = Open game mode switcher |
| Unable to open game mode switcher; no permission |
| The default game mode is now %s |
| Set own game mode to %s |
| Set %s's game mode to %s |
| Invalid or unknown game mode '%s' |
Steps to reproduce
Press
F3
+Q
Find the description for "F3 + N"
Notes
"Game mode" is commonly spelt as a single word within the Minecraft community, coming from the name of the /gamemode
command. Nonetheless, the official/correct way to spell it appears to be with two words.
