#✅ | Keybind Placeholder Fails with Space in Identifier

The issue is that a mod developer included a space in the keybind identifier (key_Quest Log). Because of this, the placeholder system cannot correctly read the option from options.txt, so minecraft_option_value fails to retrieve the bound key and returns an empty result.

That placeholder can only read option keys that are valid Java identifiers. If a mod defines the keybind as key_Quest Log (with a space), the minecraft_option_value lookup literally can’t match it in options.txt, so it returns blank. You have two options:

  • Ask the mod author to rename the keybind identifier without spaces (e.g., key_quest_log). Once the identifier is sanitized, FancyMenu’s placeholder can read the value again.
  • As a temporary workaround, edit options.txt yourself so the entry uses a space-free identifier, then keep that change synced whenever the mod updates. Warning: the mod may overwrite it again if it rewrites its own defaults.

There isn’t anything FancyMenu can do on its side; the placeholder depends on the identifier matching exactly, and spaces break that parsing.
