Alias can no longer be set for merged plots
Server Implementation
Paper
Server Version
1.18.2
Describe the bug
on merged plots you can not set alias for a long time. no teleport or placeholder, but reassign does not work, because says there is already one with the name.
alias so to speak exists but you can not use it and it is not displayed. it also looks in the SQL like not all merged plots get the alias.
To Reproduce
- Set alias -> successful according to chat
- Placeholders don't show alias, you also can't teleport to alias.
- Set alias again, with the same name -> even says would be taken.
- go through all single plots of the merge, to delete the alias ... of 6 plots that are merged. have it mostly only 2-3 the not displayed alias which can then be deleted.
- after that you can start again above with alias set and happens the same again.
Expected behaviour
set alias and the plot again reachable to teleport and placeholder.....

PLEASE HELP
I can confirm that
I cannot recreate the issue on commit 98a07dad. A Plot Alias works as intended on a merged plot.
- Placeholders display the alias.
- Teleporting to the alias works as intended.
- And removing the alias on one plot removes it on all plots
On unlink, all plots have the alias though and when then teleporting to one it will choose one. Probably the first one returned by the query.

I have just updated again to 6.7.0. But currently I still can not set an alias! Alias is set and is then assigned, but /p i shows no alias (placeholder shows no alias) and you can delete it and it is still assigned.
Update 6.8.0 has improved the alias setting/removing significantly.
but it is still missing something for 100% guarantee

I don't see how you shouldn't be able to teleport to the plot. Where will you teleport to instead? It should always teleport to the base plot home.
Also having this issue.
Seems to still be a kind-of problem.

Worked for a few times, then set the alias on the base plot, on the merged part alias-delete didn't work, after deleting the alias on the main plot, which did work, the ghost alias seemed to stay.
Can reproduce on v6.11.1 Plotsquared. It the ghost alias test is still there but not visible on /p i of the merged 2x2 Plot

I also have this issue with latest Plotsquared v7. I hope this very old Bug will be fixed!! Paper 1.20.1
Same error here
