Missing translation string death.attack.magic.player

Background

Death messages are now translatable.

The bug

However, the death.attack.magic.player death message is untranslated.

Causes

This is most likely caused by the translation string not existing in the en_us.json file itself.

How to reproduce

1. Either find or spawn a Zombie with this command:

   /summon zombie
   

2. Get close to the Zombie and then let it deal damage to you. When done, run this command quickly:

   /effect give @s instant_damage 1 5 true
   

   → As expected in the first picture, you will notice that it displays death.attack.magic.player instead.

Possible fixes

This can be fixed by using a resource pack which can be downloaded below; or if you want to create your own, just follow the steps for creating one. Your en_us.json file must be on the assets/minecraft/lang folder of your resource pack and should have this code:

{
  "death.attack.magic.player": "%1$s was killed by magic whilst trying to escape %2$s"
}

As expected in the second picture, it is fixed with the resource pack we have just created. However, this should be fixed for other players by modifying the en_us.json file on the .jar itself in order to include the translation string.
