Leaderboard problems 2

[Death_bringer_2]

I made the leaderboard, figured everything out, changed everything to the players, blah blah. When I test the map, the leaderboard shows up, but it only shows the title of the leaderboard, thats it. It doesn't show me, or how many kills i got. Whats wrong with it?

There are 5 players in the game, including red. I didn't put the other 4 players, so is it possible it won't show because of that?

P.S. YES I have all the variables i need!

 

[ADemon]

Yes. U should put at least 2 players.
PS: Show me the triggers.

 

[Death_bringer_2]

uhhh, which ones, the one for the actual leaderboard or for the players?

By the way, I put another player in, and it still does the same thing.

 

[ADemon]

show me both triggers.

 

[Death_bringer_2]

There you go ^^

I only took a screen of the trigger for Red (1/5) and the actual Leaderboard trigger (is in a seperate trigger)

 

[ADemon]

About the second trigger: You've put any player's name as the "picked player". but you've never picked them.... that might be a problem.

Sorry, It's a mistake. I didn't saw that you picked em.

 

[ADemon]

Another thingie: does the game works only if there were all 5 players? cuz' you've made the leaderboard to add the players only if all conditions are true, which are that all 5 players are in, and all 5 players are playing.

 

[Death_bringer_2]

Where did I put that? Point it out please.

 

[ADemon]

Put What?

-----------

 

[Death_bringer_2]

And the game works if anyone is playing, but I'm not sure about the Leaderboard....

Nevermind. I fixed the "Picked player" looks like I missed that while I was changing everything from the Leaderboard tutorial

How could I make the Leaderboard still work even if a few players arn't there?

 

[ADemon]

No. You did not understood.

If/then/else: IfALL CONDITIONS ARE TRUE
That means you will only see the leaderboard only when all 5 player are playing

 

[Death_bringer_2]

Ok, so on the mistake thing, I didn't have to change them?

So I have to make an If/Then/Else for every player, and not use the (if all conditions are true)?

 

[ADemon]

If then else with only one condition and only one action. at the conditions you put condition 1 or condition 2. And you continue the row.

 

[Death_bringer_2]

Please show me an example of this. Can I also still use the "Player group: Pick players (all players) and do actions" then add the conditions one by one?

 

[ADemon]

For each player should work perfectly.

In game of in WE?

 

[Death_bringer_2]

For the example? WE trigger example please

 

[Death_bringer_2]

Is this how you do it?

It works. I tested it, and it works! Only problem is, it shows my name as "Computer(Normal) Also, it won't show blue, but it shows the other 4 (including red)

 

[ADemon]

do another trigger as event - none; condition - this trigger is on; action - leaderboard- change players name to name of picked player

It's because your if/then/else action in the "pick every player" contains:
"Player 1(red) is a user" ==> must be "picked player"
then do "add player 1" ==> must be add "picked player"

 

[Death_bringer_2]

It's because your if/then/else action in the "pick every player" contains:
"Player 1(red) is a user" ==> must be "picked player"
then do "add player 1" ==> must be add "picked player"

I'm confussed, please post an example of what you mean?

 

[Death_bringer_2]

Completed Trigger

My completed player trigger

 

[Eleandor]

I mean that you have to remove those 5 "If/then/else" actions and replace it with ONE if/then/else action where everytime you refer to a player, you use "picked player" instead of "player 1" or "player 2"

 

[Death_bringer_2]

Wait, do you mean that instead of "If (player 1) equal to user" is should be: "If (picked player) equal to user"??

I could really use an example...

 

[Death_bringer_2]

Is this what you mean?

"Picked player controller equal to user"

 

[Eleandor]

Yup.
Got to love the character limit...

 

[Death_bringer_2]

Thanks, it works. Thanks alot =)

 

[Eleandor]

Why exactly are you using the custom script in that trigger?

 

[Death_bringer_2]

Why exactly are you using the custom script in that trigger?

set bj_wantDestroyGroup=true


How can I make the leaderboard show who was killed or not? I have the trigger for what it shows when they leave, but not for when they died...

 

[Eleandor]

I asked why you use the custom script

You can replace the name of the player in the leaderboard by "Dead" and change the name again into the playername when they revive.
If you want to have a 3rd collumn besides the player name and kills, you'll need a multiboard...

 

[Death_bringer_2]

Oh, you asked why. Lol, I saw what are, lol.

So to replace the name, I'll have to make a seperate trigger and make it change the name of picked player, and then turn the trigger off? (BTW, you won't be reviving in this game )

 

[Eleandor]

so... why is the script there? (yes... why )

I don't know when a player is killed, but if every player has a hero with 1 life, you could do something like

• Events
  • Unit - a unit is killed
• Conditions
  • Dying unit is a hero equal to true (boolean)
• Actions
  • Player - defeat (owner of dying unit)
  • Leaderboard - change label of (owner of dying unit) to "Dead"

But it depends on when a player "dies"
