Hey there. im using the citizens api to create an npc via command in my own plugin.

NPC citizen = CitizensAPI.getNPCRegistry().createNPC(EntityType.PLAYER, name);
citizen.spawn(location);

SkinTrait skinTrait = citizen.getOrAddTrait(SkinTrait.class);
skinTrait.setSkinPersistent(creator.toString(), skinSignature, skinValue);

citizen.getEntity().setCustomNameVisible(true);
citizen.getEntity().customName(MiniMessage.miniMessage().deserialize(name));

Chunk chunk = citizen.getEntity().getLocation().getChunk();
chunk.load();```

The skin trait sets the skin to the signature and value of the creators skin, so my own. But as you can see in the screen, sometimes theres no skin set and sometimes it works with the same code and the same skin data

Hi I'm AutoThreadBot! Don't mind me, I'll just be adding the helper team to this thread so they can see it. A human will get to you soon.

You should move the skin trait call above the spawn call

#

And you should use the nameplate visible metadata not customnamevisible
