Ngl, feeling kinda stupid right now and hoping someone can help. I have Citizens on my server and I'm trying to give them custom skins.. When I assign one npc a player skin, it accepts it, but when I change my skin and try to give the next npc my new player skin, it takes the skin of the first npc. How do I get around this because I don't remember having this problem in the past

(chargedwaf) Skin Issues
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.
to clarify: you're setting the skin of an npc to your current skin, then changing your skin and setting it on a different npc, but it's setting the skin to the old one?
Correct. I think I've figured it out, I've been playing around with it and I'm going to test it a few more ties, but it appears that if I set the new npc skin name to the first citizen before switching it to my skin, the issue gets resolved. Not sure why that would be the case though.
Please post your full latest log file.
Background Info: One of the most helpful tools to identifying the source of a problem is your server logs file! Logs contain all sorts of important information like server and plugin versions, any error messages, and a lot more important information (More Info).
How To: Your log can be found in the logs folder within your server folder. The most recent log is a text file labeled latest.log. To get help using these logs, please open that file in a text editor and copy all of the text, then open https://paste.denizenscript.com/New/Log and paste the text into the box on the page. Then click "Submit" and copy the URL and paste that back into this channel.
Please do not upload the file to Discord or to other pastebin services, use the log pastebin linked above.

Invalid Log
Log file given looks like a snippet or not a valid log. Please post your full logs/latest.log, not just the snippet you think is relevant.
All information is needed - especially the full startup output, which contains server/plugin versions, and usually is where important error messages are found.
can you provide the full log file please
[14:46:05] [Server thread/INFO]: ChargedWaffle issued server command: /npc skin ChargedWaffle
if you set it without the-largument, the npc shouldn't automatically update the current players skin
so that might be an issue, but we need to confirm it first with your help

Update: I have successfully fixed the issue three times now. I have to first set it to my skin, set it to another skin, then set it back to my skin to get the result I'm looking for. As far as the -l comand, I haven't used that to set any of these up, I started testing commands after the issue presented itself to see if anything would change.
oh i misunderstood your issue at the beginning
the issue is that, after you changed your skin, it keeps setting the old one
Correct.
!skins
NPC skins are controlled in-game via the /npc skin command, or from Java API via the SkinTrait.
For more information, refer to this wiki page:

Bet. Thank you!
afaik is also possible to use local skins
/npc skin --file
