    Hello Spigot, today I found a very, very odd NPE.
    It is occurring here:
    PHP:
    if (z.getCustomName().contains("Leather")){
    and the odd thing is, this doesn't happen on another server using this plugin.
    PHP:
    java.lang.NullPointerException
    Core.java:226
     
    Thank you!

    @TheTrollzJ the zombie doesn't have a custom name.

    So I should add:
    PHP:
    if (z.getCustomName().equals(null){
    return;
    }

    Use == instead .equals to compare with null

    hasCustomName() exists for this reason ;).
