Solved Is it true that in 1.8+ you have to use %player's uuid% not %player% in variables?

[Adrihun]

Because if the player changes their name they will lose these variabless


is it true?

only 1.8+? I think not. i think overall time. if you use "%player%" will it save to Players name. Like you already write, if he changed name. will the name lost. Yeah. But UUID will NEVER be changed. so its better to use %player's uuid% instead %player%. just use %player% only send message example.

@ChisleLP So like this, {sql_.antispam.%player's uuid%} right? (For my anti spam)

@ChisleLP

Also what is the diff between
{sql_.antispambot.%player's uuid%}

and this

{sql_.antispambot.%uuid of player%}

{sql_.antispambot.%player's uuid%}

and this

{sql_.antispambot.%uuid of player%}

is both same.

If you use a cracked server with AuthMe or something like that, the server don't use UUID's. So if the player changes his minecraft nick, it will login into another account.

I have a cracked server and I use %player%.

@ChisleLP and @aescraft What about this?,

{sql_.vanish.%loop-player%}

Just change it to

{sql_.vanish.%loop-player's uuid%}

Right?
@ChisleLP Also what about this?

"add loop-value to {_vanish::*}"

do i need to change it to

"add loop-value's uuid to {_vanish::*}"

Yes or No?

 

[ShaneBee]

You can change that in the config.sk file. You just have to set the following option to true:

use player UUIDs in variable names: true

 

[ShaneBee]

Since {_vanish::*} is a temp variable , you can just add the player , don't need to add the uuid of him.

You can leave it and it will work just fine. But yes, you did not have to change it.
