+INSTRUCTIONS
+
+put this code at the top of your mod:
+set langcode to whatever language code (zh_cn is simplified chinese)
+
+
+
+langcode = "zh_cn"
+
+var mods_to_include = ["mods/modlangs.js"]
+
+var mods_included = mods_to_include.map(mod => enabledMods.includes(mod));
+var all_mods_included = mods_included.reduce(function(a,b) { return a && b });
+
+if(!all_mods_included) {
+    var mods_needed = mods_to_include.filter(function(modPath) { return !(enabledMods.includes(modPath)) });
+
+    mods_needed.forEach(function(modPath) {
+		enabledMods.splice(enabledMods.indexOf("mods/modlangs"),0,modPath);
+	});
+	localStorage.setItem("enabledMods", JSON.stringify(enabledMods));
+}
+
+runAfterLoad(function() {
+    add_lang(langcode)
+})
+
+
+
+then you can add the name_ + langcode to your element like this:
+
+elements.eat = {
+    color: ["#ffba79","#efff79"],
+    tool: function(pixel) {
+        if (elements[pixel.element].isFood || elements[pixel.element].category === "food" || eLists.JUICEMIXABLE.includes(pixel.element) || elements[pixel.element].id === elements.uranium.id || elements[pixel.element].id === elements.mercury.id) {
+            deletePixel(pixel.x, pixel.y);
+        }
+    },
+    category: "tools",
+    desc: "Eats pixels.",
+    name_zh_cn: "吃"
+}
+
