    I am glad to see that you added a hologram above handcuffed players but I think you guys can fix it a little bit.


    Here is how it looks now:

    What I think should be done is:
    1. Remove the space at the end
    2. Put it a bit lower (lower the y axis)
    That was all. :smile:

    It used to be lower, but there was an issue with it. The way the handcuffing thing works (or, at least, works on most servers) is there's an invisible mob named "HANDCUFFED", so it'd appear as if there was nothing there other than the nametag. However, the mob still had a hitbox, so when you right clicked the player to inspect them, the hitbox would stop you from right clicking them. This is why it was moved up :stuck_out_tongue:

    Wow, I never noticed that. probably because I'm up close to the arrestee.
    I see @SoCool21's explanation. Perhaps it shouldn't be lowered.

    I have a solution to move the hologram down the y axis.
    As SoCool21 has said, the hologram is an invisible mob's name. Maybe you can change the mob to a smaller sized mob (spider, silverfish e.g) so the hologram can be lower.

    Why don't we use an invisible, invulnerable armour stand without gravity? If we activate the Marker tag then clients will disregard their hitboxes, which is really convenient.

    I don't think armor stands can be invisible.

    In fact, they can! Since they are a child class of LivingEntity, they're able to accept potion effects, including but not limited to invisibility. This also means they can be named and are susceptible to the CustomNameVisible tag, which is where my idea comes in.
