Skript transforming hex colors into color codes

[KingDooms]

So i've been trying to find an answer to why this has been happening, but idk why. Normally for names i'd like a redish-pink type color, so i use hex colors, but the problem is that the name in chat becomes the red from a color code (&c) while the name in TAB has the hex color. I tried using <##ff8f8f>, tried &#ff8f8f and tried <##ff8f8f>, but no one them worked in skript. Any fix?

Name in chat:


Name in tab:

Hmm what are you using to format the chat?

[KingDooms]

No chat plugins, just this code:
 

on chat:
    set chat format to "&7[&a%{level::%player%}%&7] %colored player's prefix% %colored player's displayname% &8»&f %colored message%"

Try formatted instead of colored but don't use it in the message part

Same result as the colored, color codes work but hex color transforms into the color codes.

    set {_X} to formatted player's displayname
    set chat format to "&7[&a%{level::%player%}%&7] %colored player's prefix% %{_X}% &8»&f %colored message%"

I doubt this will make a difference but give it a shot if that doesn't work try using this instead:

on chat:
    cancel event
    send formatted "&7[&a%{level::%player%}%&7] %player's prefix% %player's displayname% &8»&f %unformatted message%" to all players

*sigh* nope. I feel like its because of the server type, because its Paper 1.16.5 but i dont know.

Hmm doubt it I'm using the second method with the cancel event and it works for me. You could try the workaround CoolProgrammer said in another post to convert the hexcodes into colorcodes like this:

#ff8f8f

&x &f &f &8 &f &8 &f

So basically just give each letter/digit of the hexcode it's own &

#ff8f8f -> &x&f&f&8&f&8&f

Hmm what confuses me the most is that if Skript can't read a hexcode it usually takes the last letter/digit it can find in the code so in theory it would be &f so your issue where it gets set to &c is really weird. Do you by any chance have another chat format line in another skript file that could be overwriting the one you're changing? We tried a lot of stuff and literally seeing no effect is rather weird/uncommon.

heres a line of code that i use that uses hex color formatting. You can try using this? The color is brown, but you can search up a online hex color picker for different colors
 

add ancient debris named "<##614220>Netherite Clicker <##3A2713>- <##614220>[20]" with lore "&6MPC: 7500" to {Clickers::*}

But I don't have any other skript overwriting the chat format...

If you haven't tried the version with the cancel event yet I highly recommend to use this I feel like it's an issue with the chat format syntax

oh my gosh I might know why mind checking the skript where you set your display name?

Nono the display name of the player.

You're using 

%colored player's displayname%

So you had to set that somewhere
