Basically i've been just playing around, and this isn't working, it's not even displaying the multiboard.

Thanks.

You don't need an array on the multiboard. Just use a normal variable and show it to the player.

i need an array because there's 10 players and each player needs their own multiboard. (starts at player 2, jass Player(1) )

Multiboards are not created per player. They are created for all players. It's like cinematic filters, if we had (we don't) a cinematic filter variable, we wouldn't need array for that, because, when you create it, it is created for all players at the same time.

i know.. but i want to show different stats for different players possibly at the same time...

That of course is not the way to do so. You will need GetLocalPlayer() for every situation you deal with in the multiboards, from showing them to changing values per player.

or.. you could just have 12 multiboards, setting the value to the player specific thing, then just showing the multiboard to the specific player, look, i've made this technique work before, so if you're not going to try to find fault with my code, go look elsewhere to help.

You don't need to use a 0.01 timer, you can just use a 0.00 non-repeating timer.

You haven't really given any information other than the multiboard doesn't display. Have you tried putting debug messages in your code to narrow down where the problem is coming from? Try putting one inside the GetLocalPlayer() if-statement, and see if that is even being executed.

I fixed it via somone PMing me, they said to add a TriggerSleepAction(0.01) before the showing of the multiboard, it worked, for some reason.

oh well.
