Tablist sorting could not be sorted with the geyser floodgate prefix to sort "."

[guojiaqiang123]

TAB version

5.0.5

Software causing compatibility issue

floodgate gives geyser players access to Java Minecraft servers, but when the geser player is prefixed with a " . " It is not possible to sort them

At this stage, it is not possible to sort geyser players

• PLACEHOLDER_A_TO_Z:%player%

Hopefully, a new sorting scheme will be introduced that will allow players to sort the names of special symbols
Since geyser players can't view tablists, it's useless to get them sorted high

Additional info

I fail to see how this is a compatibility issue. Having a . at the beginning of name naturally reaults in different sorting result. If you want sorting to ignore the ., you can use conditions and PlaceholderAPI's string expansion with substring operation. Or replace, and there's no need for conditions.

Thanks for the reply!

Floodgate can prefix the geyser player name, if I add a special symbol, such as the symbol ".", the sorting in the tablist cannot rank the player whose name has that special symbol, I want to add the symbol "." The geyser players are ranked behind the tablist

Because . is alphabetically above other characters, bedrock players are on top of java players. This is not a bug. It's just an expected consequence. I even suggested a solution.
