Multiboard Question

[hdm]

A board shows Players even if they aren't in the game. If any player is in the game, the board shows the player name correctly, but if there is no player in certain slot, the board still shows it with Player (number of the slot). How to make a board display Players Name that are in the game ? Or a computer of course.

First, you need to know how many players are playing and who they are. Before worrying about the multiboard, you should have a check at the start of the game. Something like:

• Events
  • Map Initialisation
• Conditions
• Actions
  • For each Integer A from 1 to 12 do (Multiple Actions)
    • Actions
      • If (Multiple Actions)
        • Conditions
        • Then
          • Player Group - Add Player(Integer A) to PlayingPlayers
        • Else

This is incomplete because I don't remember what the condition looks like. There is a condition that checks the status of a player and it allows you to check if they are a computer player, a regular player, or not playing. You need to add that into the if conditions.

Then you can refer to this group when you need to refer to all the players. Your multiboard should only have one column for each playing player. Loop over the player group to fill in the information for each player.

There is a condition to check if a player is playing, use that.
