Multiboard help

[ultimate11]

Is there a specific function to show multiboard only to a specific player cuz I dont see it in WE ?
Any help will be great.

 

[Spartipilo]

There isn't. That's made with a Jass script that allows going beyond GUI capabilities. It's related to GetLocalPlayer() look around that in the forum or google and you'll find your answer

Google search: Wacraft GetLocalPlayer() multiboard

try this

 

[ultimate11]

function Trig_Multiboard_Copy_Conditions takes nothing returns boolean
    if ( not ( IsUnitType(GetTriggerUnit(), UNIT_TYPE_HERO) == true ) ) then
        return false
    endif
    if ( not (GetLocalPlayer() == GetTriggerPlayer() ) ) then
        return false
    endif
    return true
endfunction

Fixed

A bit faster

function Trig_Multiboard_Copy_Conditions takes nothing returns boolean
     return IsUnitType(GetTriggerUnit(), UNIT_TYPE_HERO) == true and GetLocalPlayer() == GetTriggerPlayer()
endfunction

Of course, be aware than GetLocalPlayer() may desync (drop everyone from the map) if not used correctly. Anything you do inside the GetLocalPlayer() block will happen only for that player, and if you do something like create a unit only for one player, he'll have a unit no one else has.

I read that on google .
But i think that a multiboard should not generate problems.The ideea is that players have their own multiboards and not share them in team or etc.

 

[Spartipilo]

Then you have to create them for everybody, hide them, and show them inside GetLocalPlayer() block so, remains hidden for everybody except for the owner of the table. Of course, the Table data has to be update also for every player.

• Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • Multiboard - Create a multiboard with 1 columns and 1 rows, titled Multiboard Title
    • Set MB[(Player number of (Picked player))] = (Last created multiboard)
    • Multiboard - Hide (Last created multiboard)
    • Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() == GetEnumPlayer() then
    • Multiboard - Show (Last created multiboard)
    • Custom script: endif

 

[ultimate11]

Trigger fire in moment when a player select a unit, it will create a multiboard for him showing custom data about that unit and destroy the multiboard when is selecting another unit.
So I`ll thing it wont be so much problem.

 

[Spartipilo]

Uh, no. Don't do it that way. Creating/Destroying multiboards is crazy.

Create 1 multiboard to display the data of the selected unit. That's all. When a player selects a unit, update the hashtable to the data of that unit. No need to destroy/create more multiboards, when you can update them.

 

[ultimate11]

Ty bro I`ll do it your way.

 

[Spartipilo]

It's not just "my way". Creating multiboards requires a bunch of functions, and doing it several times for several players would lag your map.

It's a matter of efficiency.

No You create the multiboards on 0.00 elapsed gametime, then, update them locally when a unit is selected with unit data.

Your index for the Multioard Array is the player number of triggering player.
