Troubleshooting
Special characters not working
Fixing the config.yml file encoding
To fix the issue, you'll have to save your file with the file encoding UTF-8
, here's how to do it on multiple different editors.
Encoding > Encode in UTF-8
or
Encoding > Convert to UTF-8
File > Save with Encoding > UTF-8
Edit > Select Encoding > UTF-8
Editing your launch script
This only works if you have full control of your host, and the launch script.
If changing the file encoding of the config.yml
file didn't work,
then editing your launch script might work.
You'll have to add the parameter -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8
to your launch script, here's an example:
java -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -jar spigot.jar
java -Xms=256M -Xms=1024M -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -jar spigot.jar
