Scoreboard Score questions

Hey guys. So, I made a scoreboard (obviously), and I want to put an empty score in it, to make a gap between scores so the score name is nothing (" "), so I did this:

Code:java

 
p.getScoreboard().getObjective(DisplaySlot.SIDEBAR).getScore(Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(" "));
 

It worked for me before, but now it just crashes the scoreboard and gives me an error that the name and ID cannot be null, so I was wondering how to that.

Thanks for all the help,

So like a separator type deal like this?

 

Ah yes, they changed how spaces work on the SB. However i don't think that a color code char get'd rendered so try just doing "§§" and then if you need another space do "§§§§" and so forth.

Good Luck
