Describe the bug
I've found a mod in Voxel Tycoon's mod list, that has broken pack.json file. This is the file:

{
    "Title" : "Mighty Griffin v2.0",
    "Description" : "Pack of Scania 5 generetion R-, P-, T-series.
    LQ version: pack contain trucks without overdetilization, so it will save your FPS at initial state.
    V1.0 (21.07.19): initial release.
    V2.0 (28.07.19): Fully reworked models. Added curtain and flatbed body types. Added semirtailers and HCT roadtrains.
    In next update: More body types for trucks and trailers, more semitrailers"
}

Most JSON parsers (what I've tried so far) by default fail to parse that file and that is because of the multiline string added to Description field. Json files should be validated before mod is allowed to be uploaded.

I stumbled upon this issue when I tried to make a small mod manager for myself.

Mod details:

  {
    "Author": "SpaceCossaX",
    "Updated": "2019-07-28T12:22:08.491Z",
    "Disabled": false,
    "Name": "scania_p_r_t_pack"
  },

Steps to reproduce
Download Mighty Griffin v2.0 mod and try to parse the pack.json file outside of the game (for example online json parsers like http://json.parser.online.fr/)

Platform
