Hello, I was trying to get a translation key and I came across a problem.

First code, return TransKey_Bad.

formatex(szTransKey, charsmax(szTransKey), "ZOMBIENAME %s", rgZombieClass[ZOMBIE_SECTION]);

if (GetLangTransKey(szTransKey) != TransKey_Bad)
    formatex(rgZombieClass[ZOMBIE_NAME], charsmax(rgZombieClass[ZOMBIE_NAME]), "%L", this, szTransKey);

[bp]
ZOMBIENAME Heavy Zombie = Zumbi Pesado

Now if replace " " with "_", return the right translation key.

formatex(szTransKey, charsmax(szTransKey), "ZOMBIENAME %s", rgZombieClass[ZOMBIE_SECTION]);
replace_string(szTransKey, charsmax(replace_string), " ", "_");
        
if (GetLangTransKey(szTransKey) != TransKey_Bad)
    formatex(rgZombieClass[ZOMBIE_NAME], charsmax(rgZombieClass[ZOMBIE_NAME]), "%L", this, szTransKey);

[bp]
ZOMBIENAME_Heavy_Zombie = Zumbi Pesado

If the transkey contains white spaces, the GetLangTransKey always return -1. Is this a bug or is there one "restriction" related to lang file format (syntax)?

It means the key is a word not a string.

I don't see where what you said is related to my question.

Here:
ZOMBIENAME Heavy Zombie = Zumbi Pesado
you have 3 words.

And here:
ZOMBIENAME_Heavy_Zombie = Zumbi Pesado
one big word.

Just use the second method replacing the spaces with _ (underscore) probably because its parsing using the spaces
