The error means you have multiple fields with variable widths. It has 
nothing to do with the type of the fields. The problem is you have 
extra spaces, so instead of setting the width to, for example, the TP 
field to 3, you made it a variable width field and added a 3-width 
padding after it. The status line should look like

/set status_fields=@more:8:Br :1 @world :1 TP:3 :1 ZP:3 :1 MANA:4 :1 
insert:6 :1 @clock:5
