Wrong display name on NPC

[survetman]

Hello !

I'm on the version 2.0.26-SNAPSHOT (build 1812) and I find something interresting but usually embarrassing. When I rename an NPC with a too long text, (more than 16 characters), the full name will not be desplayed. Then, when renaming with another text, I get a part of the ancient name+the new one.
I post a screen after that where you can see what I'm saying.

The name was "Canber le mendiant" in white color where there is 18 characters. So the full name wasn't display (I saw "Canber le mendia"). Then I just put "Canber" in light blue color for his name but we can see "CaCanber".
I don't know if you see what I want to explains you. If not, don't hesitate to ask :)

One of the most common plugin conflicts with Citizens is caused by scoreboard plugins.
This can cause problems such as: NPC names being capped at 16 characters (rather than the normal 48), /npc name not toggling nameplate visibility properly, or other scoreboard-related functionality failing.
This can by caused by any form of scoreboard-related plugin, such as those that add a sidebar (like Featherboard does), edit player nametags, add custom below_name lines, or similar.
This is not an unavoidable problem, it's instead caused by a mistake many scoreboard plugins make. If interested, you can read the technical details of this mistake at https://wiki.citizensnpcs.co/Plugin_Conflict.
The fix for users, however, is simple: Either report the issue to the developer of your scoreboard plugin, or switch to a non-broken scoreboard plugin (if you want a sidebar, consider https://forum.denizenscript.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=147).
