PEX: compatible unicode characters/symbols

Hello Pri,

I have tested several symbols that work with pex (permissions ex) on my personal server (for family) for donator prefixes. Instead of using the utf-8 code, just simply copy paste the symbol into the pex.yml

This heart symbol works flawlessly with pex. ❤ adding this in the donator prefix: ' ❤ ' should work. All symbols can be color coded as well, I have tested this also, so if you want a purple heart for 5-20 dollar donor and yellow for 25-40 donor you can.

I dont know how long its been since you tested unicodes but these are working..

Other symbols that have been tested and work....

✦ ✪ ☢ ☣ ♣ ☠ ♚ ✧ ♠

Permissions setup

permissions:
-
options:
rank: Donor
prefix: '&5❤'

We have the star symbol used on Staff member for player tab and the name bubble above player for a while. It would be nice if the heart symbol also works both places and in chat too...

It should work, if you can copy paste the symbol in the chat channel and see it, then it is compatible with minecraft in general.

Ok I tested it, nothing has changed really. It is quite buggy, using the unicode characters makes PEX only able to load the permissions file once, after that it won't reload it (it says it does, but it doesn't load any changes from the file).

More testing required.

EDIT:// With some configuration changes it seems to be stable and working now, we'll see.
