Unicode Replaced by Question marks #88

Closed hockeymikey closed 10 years ago

hockeymikey commented 10 years ago

I create the Holograms with a unicode symbol (like ●). Everything appears fine but when I return later after the server has restarted all the unicode has been replaced with question marks (just one per symbol). The data.yml file is still encoded in utf-8 without BOM and changing the vaules in the data.yml and reloading the config on HoloAPI does not fix it either. Only manually editing the lines in game fixes them but they eventually are reverted back to question marks.

Only things I view in the logs from HoloAPI are the following. http://pastebin.com/6p7BMT6i Thanks

Use the in-built Unicode replacer in HoloAPI.

Unicode replacer fixes this issue on restarts. Not as clean as I would like it with the replacer but still gets the job done!

DSH105, you could probably do something along the lines of what I did in my CommonUtils plugin. It's not exactly the cleanest nor probably the best method but it works: https://github.com/Favorlock/CommonUtils/commit/f97f7a98b420513dd72cf76da4d201471dcfbe3b

Essentially what I do is look for unicode escapes in a string and convert it to a character.

Thanks @Favorlock. I'll implement it when I can get around to it (or you could PR :3).
