Paper console colors are broken

Error log (if applicable)

No response

Bug description

Paper changed the logger to not parse color codes and must now use the console command sender for colors in the console.

Steps to reproduce

Do any command that gives feedback messages in the console.

Expected behaviour

Doing /echest without permission for example does
[Essentials] §cHexedHero was denied access to command.
As you can see the console is now a mess with random §'s without any color.

Actual behaviour

It should be
[Essentials] HexedHero was denied access to command.
while being colored red

Thanks for the report, can verify that this happens. We will probably want to either 1) use the server command sender to send these messages (with prefix prepended) or just strip the color altogether for any logged messages.

Paper-387 (MC: 1.18.2) w/ Essentials 2.19.5-dev+29-09dc49a still has this issue, at least ban messages still isn't formatted and outputs with § instead of any formatting..

bump :/ @JRoy

This isn't an issue on paper anymore. Use the latest essentials dev build with the latest paper

We (and I think it's not just us) currently can't update to 1.19+ but Essentials declares (full?) support of 1.18.2 in their README. If it works fully and without issues only on latest server version, why are you listing other, older versions?

This is not a bug in the latest 1.18.2 Paper version. I still use 1.18.2 to develop Essentials and this isn't an issue in my console.

Hmm... What version do you using?

I'm using this and it's says that it's latest

This server is running Paper version git-Paper-387 (MC: 1.18.2) (Implementing API version 1.18.2-R0.1-SNAPSHOT) (Git: df630a2 on ver/1.18.2)
You are running the latest version

Don't know what to tell you, works on my end. Either an issue with your terminal setup or some other plugin is messing with your console output but essentials literally doesn't even send section signs to the console anymore
