Name Colours
This datapack is now deprecated! I recommend using my Stream Status datapack instead for the same (but nicer) functionality. To remove the /trigger recording functionality, remove the following line from data/stream_status/funcitons/update.mcfunction:
scoreboard players enable @a recording
This is a basic minecraft datapack, designed to colour the names of players based on the dimension they are in. It also updates based on if a player is AFK or not. It will adjust player names as follows:
Additionally, AFK players will have their names suffixed with a gray [AFK] tag after 5 minutes.
The following image is a preview of all dimension and AFK combinations.
Please note that this datapack uses teams to allocate name colours. If you wish to use other teams, you will need to temporarily remove this datapack since minecraft currently only allows one team per player.
Installation / Removal
To install the datapack, simply drag the downloaded zip file into the datapack folder of your world.
To uninstall, type /function name_colours:uninstall. This will remove all teams, scoreboard values, and tags related to the datapack. Then remove the zip file from the datapacks folder and reload the world.
Check out my GitHub page BVengo/name-colours for other datapack versions.

Thanks to the Vanilla Tweaks datapack 'AFK Display', and AqUpd's datapack 'Tab Dimension Colour' for inspiring me to make this joint datapack. You can find their individual datapacks at the following links:

Unfortunately they don't work together because they both use the same teams prefix / suffix commands, and MC only allows one at a time.
Please check out https://www.planetminecraft.com/data-pack/stream-status/ for further support, because this datapack has been deprecated.
Are you using Spigot by any chance? It's known for breaking all chat colours and implementing their own. An alternative is to use Paper instead, and adjusting the following line in paper.yml:
use-vanilla-world-scoreboard-name-coloring=trueThere isn't currently, but keep an eye open on https://www.planetminecraft.com/data-pack/stream-status/ because I'll add a 1.16.5 version in the future (and this datapack is now deprecated).
You may be able to update it yourself by opening up the datapack and changing the pack format in pack.mcmeta to 6, but I haven't tested it myself!
I actually recently updated my Stream Status datapack to have identical functionality as this one, but with a much nicer look and feel. It changes the AFK suffix to a gray dot ●, and also allows you to manually set yourself as afk by typing /trigger afk. I've now marked this one as deprecated.
You can check it out here: https://www.planetminecraft.com/data-pack/stream-status/
All instructions below relate to the Stream Status datapack.
If you want to update the symbols used, they can be changed in /data/stream_status/functions/load.mcfunction.
You'll see a lot of lines with team modify <team> prefix [...] - just change ● to the symbol that you want. Unfortunately we can't throw any random image in there though - we're limited to characters that can be included as text.
You would be interested primarily in updating the lines with {"text":" ●", "color":"gray"}, since the red dots are for the recording part of the datapack.
To remove the streaming functionality of the new datapack entirely (i.e. make it identical to this datapack), remove the line
scoreboard players enable @a recording
from data/stream_status/functions/update.mcfunction.
I hope that helps!
