[Trigger] having non-sequential player numbers on a multi-board

[Flitty]

I'm fine with creating multiboards, adding players to them and modifying the data displayed based on the player it is for but I have never figured out what to do if I don't add every player 1-12. If say only players 1,2,4,7,9 are playing i can create the multiboard with the correct number of rows, but If i want to modify say the kills of player 4 it isn't going to work, it'll modify the kills of player 7 because it's the fourth player on the board.

how can I go about adding players if there is gaps and how can I determine what particular row any given player is placed into so I can display information belonging to the correct player.

You need something like:

• Set I = 2
• Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • -------- Check if player is a player and is alive --------
      • Then - Actions
        • -------- Add player to the multiboard row I --------
        • Set I = (I + 1)

Or at least something like that, haven't touched WE for a while ^^'

You would need to count rows per integer and give it's value to a specific player via custom variable.

trigger

• Set Counter = 2
• For each (Integer Int) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
  • Schleifen - Aktionen
    • Set Player = (Player(Int))
    • If all conditions are true
      • If - Conditions
        • Player slot status = playing
      • Then - Actions
        • Set Counter = (Counter + 1)
        • Set Row_Player[Int] = Counter
        • Multiboard - Set the text for Multiboard item in column 1, row Row_Player[Int] to ((Name of Player)
        • Multiboard - Set the text for Multiboard item in column 2, row Row_Player[Int] to (DJ)
        • Multiboard - Set the text for Multiboard item in column 3, row Row_Player[Int] to (YOLOSWAG)
        • Multiboard - Set the text for Multiboard item in column 4, row Row_Player[Int] to (2013)
        • Else - Actions

Variables needed:
Player = player
Int, Counter = integer
Row_Player = integer [array]

The Int represents the player number of Player... we set Counter[Int] equal to the row where Player gets signed in.

So later you do not change in..

• Multiboard - Set the text for Multiboard item in column X, row (Player number of Player) to YourValue

you need to do ..

• Multiboard - Set the text for Multiboard item in column X, row (Row_Player[Player number of Player]) to YourValue

thanks iceman and kanadaj, the solution is pretty obvious after seeing it lol.
