Bug Town Name Cutting Off

[devotedworker]

Ok! The bug is this

When you are in a town and your name is 13+ Letters long it can cut it off.
For once... I know how this happens

[How it happens]

In normal minecraft, the name is shown as this

Devotedworker

But in towns, the server adds an BOLD and a green format symbol like this

§a§ldevotedworker --> devotedworker

Which knocks my 13 letter username to 17 which somehow makes it cut off the last letters of your username making it so my name shows as

devotedworke

Which makes the Client look for the userskin devotedworke which doesn't exist, so it defaults to steve...

Can you change this? I would rather not have half of the town members looking like steve constantly.

Maybe make town members names blue or something? Or use the {/scoreboard teams option TeamName color green} mechanic so it doesn't have to use the § symbol to the username.

PLZZ! I dont wanna be steve! I like my hat!

When the name is too long it also affects the diamond health bars you would see (when you set someone as an enemy it makes their name red and bold, can't see the diamond health bars = problematic)

Yes, it is disappointing this happens. I'd really like to wear my skin!

@Kainzo @Coders Any comment? ( Town names and party names cutting off are from the same thing )

The scoreboard is already being used for several things - I'll see if @greatman321 can hook into it for team names but it may not be possible with how many we're already using.

Things that'd need to use it..
Parties in Heroes
Town members and Allies in Townships
Clans / Allies and Opposing Clans in SimpleClans

but but but I like the steve skin.

I never realized that the steve skin problem is because of names being cut off.
