Has anyone been having problems with holograms constantly creating new invisible armour stands with the recent dev builds and 1.14.4?
My server has began to get spammed with invisible armorstand in the chunks where I created holograms, at one point a single chunk had 10000 in a single area, these are removed after a restart but it's making my server unplayable.
I'm currently using paper 1.14.4
Hi I noticed some changes,
Basically whenever I move a hologram it goes straight into the ground, And also upon creating one it seems very high compared to another one I was using before 1.14.
Could you maybe check it out?
I have some screenshots of what I mean:

In reply to Forge_User_65177987:
when you make them and stand on the ground they atomatically move up, you need to fly and make sure your feet are exactly where you want the hologram to be, i use f5 for the best localization.
hey ! this is a great plugin! really epic and easy to use even as developer
just few wonders:
after like 10ish + mins, the indivisible armor stand that hold the holographic displays shows up
as before it was invisible.
anyone know why?
Suggestion: Open an issue with many more details, for example:
Hello I get these errors : https://pastebin.com/bAMgvisZ I know there are other plugins in this . Weird thing is , it all appears to be working fine .
Allow to use plugin commands in command blocks, pls! Very necessary. I don’t know java enough to do this, but im learning with watching sources.
Maybe, somebody want to remote plugin automatically too :)
Can be cause of huge laggs on your server, ik it.

HolographicDisplays is currently taking up over 25% of our server tick.

`HolographicDisplays::Event: c.g.f.h.l.MainListener (ChunkLoadEvent)`
Please advise how I can reduce this lag?
Is it the amount of Holograms? Is there a configuration setting I'm missing?
Can you do anything on your end to help us out please.
I've seen several other servers report the same issues.
Now sure what's causing it.
We are running Paper 1.13.2 Build 639
In reply to andrewecc:
Can you put the latest.log in a Pastebin so I can get more information on what may be causing this, also provide a list of other plugins you may be using
In reply to andrewecc:
it may also be a good idea to list the specs of the hardware as well
Update:
Found that all mobs were also invisible on my server after updating. After a quick google search found that this was being caused by the TAB plugin.
Removing the TAB plugin made mobs and holograms reappear :D

this literally saved me I love you
Hey, also not working for me on 1.14.4
Using the latest test build which was uploaded 14 hours ago. All the commands seem to work, '/holo list' correctly lists all my old holograms. But none of them are visible and neither are any new ones I create.
Console startup only has one error related to Holographic Displays but it's not related (Got a hologram in a world that no longer exists)
(If the pic doesnt load its a horse with a wither head floating in the air with the text of the hologram in them)Not only that but nothing appears where i want it to be, this is roughly 60 blocks above whereever i move the hologram, i had it working yesterday then this happened after i did nothing. Please help! I'm using 1.7.10 paper spigot and i've tried all versions of this plugin.
