I have a multiboard set to display for all players. Sometimes it displays for player 1 and sometimes it displays for player 2 when testing with more than one. Player 1 or player 2, only one of them gets to see the board.

  • For each (Integer LoopIndex[1]) from 1 to 11, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • (Player[LoopIndex[1]] slot status) Equal to Is playing
        • Then - Actions
          • Multiboard - Create a multiboard with 5 columns and 2 rows, titled (PlayerColors[LoopIndex[1]] + Stats)
          • Set Multi[LoopIndex[1]] = (Last created multiboard)

          • Multiboard - Set the width for (Last created multiboard) item in column 2, row 1 to 8.00% of the total screen width
          • Multiboard - Set the width for (Last created multiboard) item in column 4, row 1 to 8.00% of the total screen width
          • Multiboard - Set the width for (Last created multiboard) item in column 1, row 2 to 10.00% of the total screen width

If both player 1 and player 2 are in game, it will only show for player 2.Remove these 4 lines at the bottom.

Multiboard - Hide (Last created multiboard)
Custom script: if ( GetLocalPlayer() == udg_Player[udg_LoopIndex[1]] ) then
Multiboard - Show (Last created multiboard)
Custom script: endif

Multiboard - Create a multiboard with 5 columns and 2 rows, titled (PlayerColors[LoopIndex[1]] + Stats)
If we look at the BJ it calls...

JASS:
function CreateMultiboardBJ takes integer cols,integer rows,string title returns multiboard
    set bj_lastCreatedMultiboard = CreateMultiboard()
    call MultiboardSetRowCount(bj_lastCreatedMultiboard, rows)
    call MultiboardSetColumnCount(bj_lastCreatedMultiboard, cols)
    call MultiboardSetTitleText(bj_lastCreatedMultiboard, title)
    call MultiboardDisplay(bj_lastCreatedMultiboard, true)
    return bj_lastCreatedMultiboard
endfunction

Or more importantly
JASS:
    call MultiboardDisplay(bj_lastCreatedMultiboard, true)

You can see that it automatically shows the board as it is created. This means any previous show operation is overwritten so...

Multiboard - Hide (Last created multiboard)
Custom script: if ( GetLocalPlayer() == udg_Player[udg_LoopIndex[1]] ) then
Multiboard - Show (Last created multiboard)
Custom script: endif
Might as well be placed outside the loop as it will only affect the very last created multiboard.

You need two separate loops...
Loop 1 -> Creates the multiboards, hiding them after creation.
Loop 2 -> Shows the multiboards only to the appropriate players.

If you use JASS to directly create the multiboards using this native...
JASS:
native CreateMultiboard takes nothing returns multiboard
Then you can do it in a single loop as I recall multiboards defaulting to not visible.
