I was testing colors in Console today, and i wanted to see if you can use colors in the kick reasons, so i used & Color commands, It kicked the person with the colored reason, but crashed the server lol.

I know it was a bad idea but i was testing stuff lol

Btw i tried this 2 times, And dont try it at home lol it'll immediatly crash it

What happens if you kick someone with colours in game?

That's because '&' in minecraft crashes it.

EDIT: or not, I just tested exactly what you said and nothing happened (meaning it worked, I saw colors, no one crashed).

The ENTIRE server froze lol, i had to force restart it.

did u do it through console?
and in the kick reason

Yup, i typed from the console /kick boblol0909 &4cause i can

and on my wom screen it said

Kicked by (console):cause i can

Can you post what version your working with and on what os?
And do you get the crash each time you kick? or did it happend once?

If you are modding your copy of fCraft, I can't help you.

i think it is the fcraft ui, ive had trouble with it just randomly crashing, but im using fcraft console, and it works better, even less memory useage.

Ok I think I finally understood what you were trying to do. Minecraft clients do crash on certain malformed messages, especially if they involve color codes. Next version of fCraft has a new chat sanitizer that will make sure that a crash-causing message would never be sent to a player.

Haha, frag, that bug has been around since the early days of fcraft. I remember when I was giving you bug reports on IRC mentioning this one.
