Solved & gets replaced with "null"

Hey Community,

I dont know what it is, but it's not working:

Config:

Code:

YT:
- MSG1
- MSG2
- MSG3
- MSG4

If I for example insert &4TEST and reload the server, it replaces the &4TEST with just "null".

No errors etc.

InGame Command to output into chat

Code:

package cmds;

import java.io.File;
import java.util.List;

import org.bukkit.command.Command;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandExecutor;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandSender;
import org.bukkit.configuration.file.FileConfiguration;
import org.bukkit.configuration.file.YamlConfiguration;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;

public class yt implements CommandExecutor{

    private File file = new File("plugins//SchillerBasic", "Nachrichten.yml");
    private FileConfiguration cfg = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(file);
  
    @Override
    public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String label, String[] args) {


      
        List<String> youtube = cfg.getStringList("YT");
      
        for(String str : youtube){
            Player p = (Player) sender;
            p.sendMessage(str);
        }
        return true;
    }
  
  

}

Main:

Code:

package me.schillerbasic;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Arrays;

import org.bukkit.configuration.file.FileConfiguration;
import org.bukkit.configuration.file.YamlConfiguration;
import org.bukkit.plugin.PluginManager;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;

import cmds.yt;

import listener.Reload;

public class Class extends JavaPlugin{
    
    String[] yt = {"MSG1", "MSG2", "MSG3", "MSG4"};

  
    private File ordner = new File("plugins//SchillerBasic");
    private File file = new File("plugins//SchillerBasic", "Nachrichten");
    private FileConfiguration cfg = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(file);
    public static String prefix = "§6SchillerYT §7>> §3";

    private static Class plugin;
    public static int sc;
    
    public static Class getPlugin(){
       return plugin;
     }
    
    public void onDisable() {
    }
    
    public void onEnable(){
        registerFiles();
        setCFG();
      
        PluginManager pm = this.getServer().getPluginManager();
        pm.registerEvents(new Reload(), this);
       getCommand("yt").setExecutor(new yt());
      
       try {
            cfg.save(file);
        } catch (IOException e) {
        }
      
    }
  
  
    public void setCFG(){
      
        cfg.options().copyDefaults(true);
        cfg.addDefault("YT", Arrays.asList(youtube));
      
      
      
        try {
            cfg.save(file);
        } catch (IOException e) {
          
        }
    }
  
    public void registerFiles(){
        if(!ordner.exists()){
            ordner.mkdir();
        }
      
      
        if(!file.exists()){
        try {
            file.createNewFile();
        } catch (IOException e) {
          
        }
      

    }
    }
}
      

Thanks,

First, thanks for your answer.

1 What do u mean with "plugin varibale"?
2 Did it in like 100 plugins, never went wrong... so who cares?

 

1. I set it?
2. ok


But u still haven't answered my question.

Its also in the code I sent u

And my question was why my &4TEST gets replaced with "null" in the config.

 

@Markcrafter1 You cannot just put &4TEST and expect the output to be the same as ChatColor.DARK_RED + "TEST". Use

Code:

ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes(arg1, String to translate);

To automatically translate the given char (defined as arg1) to ChatColor.<Color Name>.

 

Another case of : start learning Java basics before coding Bukkit plugins. Same as don't start running before you can walk

 

This was the only thing I wanted to know. Working fine now. Thanks.

Thanks for your answer! That was missing too, but I found it out myself. Thanks anyway!

Very useful comment to get rid of my problem. Thank you anyway
