Solved MOTD Problem's

I want to have symbols in my MOTD but for some reason whenever i put the special symbol to put in the "special symbol", it resets my proxy config. I also can't type on the 2nd line. I tried to do the /n but it did not work. Also, is there a way to add in a hover feature over the ping bar? Something like MCCentral.

To answer your questions...

Special Symbol, I am quite confused on what you mean by Special Symbol? Can you provide an example?

For your second question I believe you might have found a bug with this new update. For reference you do backslash n, \n , not slash n. Though that doesn't seem to be working. Might just be me, Ill have to do some more testing in the morning. For a Need It Now run, I believe just typing allot of stuff will push it to the next line. As you can see below it is on two lines with my motd being what is seen below.

Code (text):

  motd: Trest Testsjsfnkmdl,;fnjskml fsjkmdlf fsjofkms fosino \n foskmfkosmfkdsmfml s fsofkmdslmfksd fnkjnsf
 

And for your third question I believe you are talking about the sample feature, you can read more about it here http://www.lilypadmc.org/threads/the-new-sample-feature.486/.

For the symbol's, I want to put something like Mineplex's Sword symbol, Here is a MOTD code that I stole , and when i try to enter it, It resets the config .

The MOTD code: §b§m---§r§8§m§l[-§r §6§lMinecraft COSMO §f§lGames §8§m-§l]§b§m---§r
§e§l(THE SERVER NAME) §a§l(SOME UPDATE INFO THEY ADDED)

Code (text):

  motd: '§b§m---§r§8§m§l[-§r §6§lMinecraft COSMO §f§lGames §8§m-§l]§b§m---§r                  §e§l(THE SERVER NAME) §a§l(SOME UPDATE INFO THEY ADDED)'

=

Don't use the section symbol (§). You should be using the & symbol instead so you don't have to encode your config files as Unicode.
And you can use \n to start the a line instead of lots of spaces.

Also note the yaml parser requires you to wrap the text in double quotation marks(" ... ") for the new line character and colour codes to work. That will be why the config keeps resetting.

EG:

Code (text):

motd: '&b&m---&r&8&m&l[-&r &6&lMinecraft COSMO &f&lGames &8&m-&l]&b&m---&r \n &e&l(THE SERVER NAME) &a&l(SOME UPDATE INFO THEY ADDED)'

You still have the \n in there.

Code (text):

  motd: '&b&m---&r&8&m&l[-&r &6&lMinecraft COSMO &f&lGames &8&m-&l]&b&m---&r \n &e&l(THE SERVER NAME) &a&l(SOME UPDATE INFO THEY ADDED)'
 

^ Exactly what you wrote.

Try wrapping it in double quotes.

Code (text):

  motd: "&b&m---&r&8&m&l[-&r &6&lMinecraft COSMO &f&lGames &8&m-&l]&b&m---&r \n &e&l(THE SERVER NAME) &a&l(SOME UPDATE INFO THEY ADDED)"
 

Yep. @Alex Chmil :

Code (text):

  motd: "&b&m---&r&8&m&l[-&r &6&lMinecraft COSMO &f&lGames &8&m-&l]&b&m---&r \n &e&l(THE SERVER NAME) &a&l(SOME UPDATE INFO THEY ADDED)"
 

Thanks @Tzeentchful ! We should make a Frequently asked Questions, or Frequent Questions thread at some point for stuff like this.

I believe that the entire site is going to be redone soon with a proper wiki and all so it will be easier to look up info. Im not sure when @Coelho is planning to do that. If it's soon there isn't much point but if it's a few weeks or a month away then a FAQ would be good.

Work's Great! Thank's for the great feedback. Here is what my MOTD looks like now :
