Wow, believe it or not, this is a lot to do! But I will help you.

I will show you how to do the first player, then you can do the rest yourself thus learning a bit about multiboard triggers!

first create a trigger called "create", this will create the multiboard here is the code:
  • create
    • Events
      • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.40 seconds
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Multiboard - Create a multiboard with 4 columns and 2 rows, titled Player stats
      • Set Multiboard = (Last created multiboard)
For the second trigger for the multiboard call it "text" this is the code:
  • Text
    • Events
      • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.50 seconds
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • -------- Set view setting for the text --------
      • Multiboard - Set the display style for Multiboard item in column 1, row 1 to Show text and Hide icons
      • Multiboard - Set the display style for Multiboard item in column 2, row 1 to Show text and Hide icons
      • Multiboard - Set the display style for Multiboard item in column 3, row 1 to Show text and Hide icons
      • Multiboard - Set the display style for Multiboard item in column 4, row 1 to Show text and Hide icons
      • -------- Now make the text --------
      • Multiboard - Set the text for Multiboard item in column 1, row 1 to Team one
      • Multiboard - Set the text for Multiboard item in column 2, row 1 to Levels
      • Multiboard - Set the text for Multiboard item in column 3, row 1 to Kills
      • Multiboard - Set the text for Multiboard item in column 4, row 1 to Gold
      • -------- Now set width --------
      • Multiboard - Set the width for Multiboard item in column 1, row 1 to 10.00% of the total screen width
      • Multiboard - Set the width for Multiboard item in column 2, row 1 to 5.00% of the total screen width
      • Multiboard - Set the width for Multiboard item in column 3, row 1 to 5.00% of the total screen width
      • Multiboard - Set the width for Multiboard item in column 4, row 1 to 5.00% of the total screen width
      • -------- Set Color (Optional) --------

      • -------- Set width to the same as the other trigger --------
      • Multiboard - Set the width for Multiboard item in column 1, row 2 to 10.00% of the total screen width

      • Multiboard - Set the color for Multiboard item in column 1, row 2 to (100.00%, 80.00%, 20.00%) with 0.00% transparency
      • Multiboard - Set the color for Multiboard item in column 1, row 2 to (100.00%, 80.00%, 20.00%) with 0.00% transparency
      • Multiboard - Set the color for Multiboard item in column 1, row 2 to (100.00%, 80.00%, 20.00%) with 0.00% transparency
      • -------- Show the multiboard --------
