    Hi,

    I'm using 1.12.2 spigot. I want to use Unicode symbols in some of the spigot messages in the spigot.yml, but it comes up with an error. Is there a way of doing this?

    Thankssss,

    Absentt

    Could you give us the error that it gives?

    Try wrapping the text in quotes (e.g. "like this"). YAML is pretty good about allowing unquoted text values, but certain characters are only allowed within quoted strings and I suspect that's what's going on here.

    I tried this already. Didn't work, same error.

    Considering the default is: Unknown command. Type "help" for help.

    I don't believe "" affects it.

    You could try replacing the character with the unicode escape symbol which for what you are trying, should be \u2666.
    So just try something like this
    Code (YAML):

    joinmessage    : "\u2666 >> Welcome Player to Server"

    I also already tried this, and it just posted it as is.
