NullPointerException

Could i please see your code?
This is due to commit 1cddc52

Code: http://pastebin.com/d7MjxiFX

NPCController line 64 (from the error) is 'npc.spawn(location);'

Where is someValidUUID?
Also could you open a new issue for the wierd looking npcs?

[tavonkelly]

someValidUUID is just a field with a UUID in it

I did attempt to find the cause of this issue, and I believed it to be that the lib was being rate-limited.

When you call setSkin(UUID uuid) which calls trySetSkin() it requests the skin from Mojang, but doesn't set it because the entity isn't spawned yet. When you call spawn(Location location) right after calling setSkin(UUID uuid) it requests the skin again, but Mojang rate-limits the request, so the PlayerProfile it returns is null, hence the NPE.

I decided to remove the trySetSkin() from the setSkin(UUID uuid) method and move the trySetSkin() in the spawn(Location location) to after the entity is spawned, but for some reason the skin still didn't work.

Hi,
I'm getting the same nullpointer error if I try and set a skin on Spigot v1_8_R2.
