GetTermTranslation behaving inconsistently

Hi,

I've been using I2 for a client project recently and I localized a big list of game strings but then was asked to change their names so as to avoid confusion to a different naming convention. Accessing via GetTermTranslation("game_congratulation_0") worked perfectly before, but now that entry has had it's name changed to "game_congratulation_goodjob" for example, it seems that if I write:

return I2.Loc.ScriptLocalization.Get("game_congratulation_goodjob");

I'll get the string I expect out of it.

Whereas if I write

return I2.Loc.ScriptLocalization.Get(key);

with a key being fetched from a list of strings, and even if I confirm that it's the same string as "game_congratulation_goodjob", it returns an empty string.

I'm pulling my hair out because of this one, I've even tried deleting some of those entries and re-creating them.

Objects that have been localized with the Localize script still function normally.

Any idea what might cause this behaviour?

edit:

Disregard! And delete if necessary. What was actually happening was quotation marks were being left in the strings when they were coming down from the server and being converted from JSON, I didn't spot it for hours... Sorry for the inconvenience!
