Ok so i made a multiboard using this tutorial http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/general-mapping-tutorials-278/all-about-multiboards-84942/#Customize
It's a good tutorial to help get someone started with multiboards but it doesn't cover everything.
I got the multiboard to only add players that are in the game, but (because the way i did it i guess) it will give players the wrong name/color. for example when i test the map i am using player 1 (me), player 4 (comp) player 12 (comp). it gives me to right color and player name but for anything past player one it will get the wrong name. player 4 becomes player 2 and will be blue and player 12 will be player 3 and teal. (and if i add more computers it does the same thing to them)
here is my create multi board trigger
here is my count active player trigger
here is a pic of what the multiboard looks like in game (looks the same after current edits.)
once again that shouldnt be player 2/3 on the board it should be player 4/12 and it should be purple and brown not blue and teal.
if you can help or spot what i am doing wrong let me know.
oh and idk if you need this but here is my set player colors trigger
