How do I put '%' next to each other without doubling up?

[idle basalt]

I don't want a space in between but if they are next to each other I get an error because Skript thinks I am doubling percentages
set chat format to "%player's prefix%%player%: &r%colored message%"

Try escaping one?

Use a "\%"

[idle basalt]

I did

[sullen lantern]

IDK if that works

[idle basalt]

but it includes the \ in the message when I chat

[sullen lantern]

weird

What is the problem? and why there is a space in this variable

Read what he said dumbass

1. Don't ping me if you're not going to reply anything productive.
2. There is no need to insult.

Please remember to stay respectful

^

i should be %prefix% %player% not %prefix%% player%

try to look through your code carefully

Bro I know

I literally explained that I don't want a space between them

But escaping doesn't work

[idle basalt]

Typo but it's not the problem

[idle basalt]

He was being productive in his own way. Read my message please!

[delicate sleet]

on chat:
    set chat format to "%player's prefix%%player%: &r%colored message%"

So the error occurs when you use the code like this?

I don't see what the problem is, in my case it works fine 🤷‍♂️

[idle basalt]

    set chat format to "%player's prefix%%player%: &r%colored message%"```
This gives an error because it thinks I'm doubling the '%' like "%%something%%"

[idle basalt]

Did you not read it still

[delicate sleet]

I wouldn't answer if I hadn't read it, in any case send /sk info

[idle basalt]

Ok I will when I'm home

Thanks for the help ig
