 Description   

Using player.kickPlayer("ChatColor.RED + "SERVER SHUTDOWN!" + ChatColor.WHITE + "\nThe MineEmpire server was shutdown,\nwe will be back soon!");

Will only show the first line "SERVER SHUTDOWN!" instead of all the lines.

Expected result:

 

This problem seems to come from:

public void kickPlayer(String message) { 
  if (getHandle().c == null) { 
    return;
  }
  getHandle().c.a(CraftChatMessage.fromStringOrEmpty(message)); 
}

 

by default CraftChatMessage.fromStringOrEmpty(message); ignores newlines,

using CraftChatMessage.fromStringOrEmpty(message, true); fixes this.

 

Bypass:

String message = ChatColor.RED + "SERVER SHUTDOWN!" + ChatColor.WHITE + "\nThe MineEmpire server was shutdown,\nwe will be back soon!";
CraftPlayer cPlayer = (CraftPlayer) player;
if (cPlayer != null) {
  if (cPlayer.getHandle() != null) {    cPlayer.getHandle().connection.disconnect(CraftChatMessage.fromStringOrEmpty(message, true));
  };
};
