CST.NET is a library for parsing Maxis' key-value pair format. It can be used in conjunction with your own custom frameworks, or the original UIText APIs.
Caret-Separated Text (or CST) is a key-value pair format represented by digits or words as keys and the value as text enclosed between carets. (e.g. <key> ^<text>^) Any text which is not enclosed with carets is considered a comment and ignored. Neither strings nor comments may use the caret character.
See changelog.md
See /docs.
- Support for parameters (e.g.
%1)
- Skipping comments is a little unpredictable.
- .NET 6 or later.
- IDEs or Editors
- .NET Interactive for notebooks (optional).
You can contribute to CST.NET by testing cutting edge features in the latest releases, filing bugs, and joining in the discussion on our forums!

Regarding translations, full object and UI translations should currently be released on the forums. This is far from perfect and is due to be reworked. Stay tuned!
