Formatting Issue with PlaceholderAPI #17
Description
Description
Coming from Paper, I was hoping to bring over some of the functionality that I had there. As seen in the screenshot below, I am using NametagEdit and PlaceholderAPI to show my nickname, my rank (the red +), and my actual username. Before the username is also the suffix but it's not visible - I use that for donator rank colors. Placeholders here replace for each player entry - that is, Steve has his placeholders, Notch has his, Alyx has hers, and so forth.
Installing PlaceholderAPI and TabManager, I set out to implement the same functionality. Here is my config file:
"DEFAULT": {
"name": "default",
"prefix": "&7%player_suffix%(",
"suffix": ") %player_prefix%&f%player_displayname%"
}Issue
When in game, the PlaceholderAPI replacements are performed for the person viewing the tab list, not the player in that line of the tab list. This leads to strange behavior like seen in the screenshots below, one from me and one from one of my moderators.
Additionally, it would seem that the %player_displayname% placeholder is showing my username and not my nickname, despite having a nickname set with Nucleus.
