Multiboard

[DarkJustice]

ok i set up this multiboard for a Vampirism map..
is there any way to make it show current lumber?

 

[MajorKaza]

hmm. Yes

You need just to update it as periodic event, useing:

• |
  • player - curent lumber

EDIT:
I attached map. Give me credit or rep if it helps.

 

[DarkJustice]

will do

 

[Nestharus]

Rather than using a timer, I'd take advantage of call TriggerRegisterPlayerStateEvent(myTrigger,myPlayer,PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_LUMBER, GREATER_THAN_OR_EQUAL,0)

 

[DarkJustice]

i think i fucked it up i tried to make it for 8 players..

 

[MajorKaza]

Make folowing cahnges in my triggers:

change rows count to 8,
change update trigger to this way:

• update
  • Events
    • Periodic event - evry 1 second of gametime
  • Conditions
    • None
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 8 do
      • Actions
        • Multiboard - change text in column 2 and row (Integer A) to Player - Player(Integer A) curent wood

 

[DarkJustice]

ok i tested your way and the multiboard still does not work any suggestions?

 

[MajorKaza]

Tell me what exacly you mean by 'not work'. What you see on screen?

 

[DarkJustice]

it over laps every single one i made for the multiboard "idk why"
but i think its just a minor bug or i fucked the hole trigger up
EDIT: im making no sense yes but im new to multiboards so 0.o

 

[MajorKaza]

"over laps"? Whats it mean? Not nought rows, columns? Wrong data? No text?

 

[DarkJustice]

i think not enough rows...they will over lap the words and players name
EDIT: btw every time i think i fix it i end up findind a new proplem

 

[Nestharus]

Try making your column widths bigger.

 

[DarkJustice]

ahh yes i shall do that

ok hmm
heres what i did
Events
Time - Elapsed game time is 0.10 seconds
Conditions
NONE
Actions
Multiboard - Create a multiboard with 3 columns and (1 + Player_Count) rows, titled Vampirism Armagedon
Set Board = (Last created multiboard)
Multiboard - Set the width for Board item in column 0, row 0 to 10.00% of the total screen width
Multiboard - Set the text for Board item in column 1, row 1 to (Name of Player 1 (Red))
Multiboard - Set the icon for (Last created multiboard) item in column 1, row 1 to ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNPeasant.blp
Multiboard - Set the icon for (Last created multiboard) item in column 2, row 1 to UI\Feedback\Resources\ResourceLumber.blp

ok now wood time
Update

Loop - Actions
Multiboard - Set the text for Board item in column 2, row 1 to (String((Player 1 (Red) Current lumber)))

but it still wont work

ya im sorry im asking for alot :/

 

[MajorKaza]

Multiboard - Set the text for Board item in column 2, row 1 to (String((Player 1 (Red) Current lumber)))

There is bug. You are makeing all for player 1. Same here:

Multiboard - Set the text for Board item in column 1, row 1 to (Name of Player 1 (Red))
Multiboard - Set the icon for (Last created multiboard) item in column 1, row 1 to ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNPeasant.blp
Multiboard - Set the icon for (Last created multiboard) item in column 2, row 1 to UI\Feedback\Resources\ResourceLumber.blp

EDIT:
Do it useing for actions:

• init
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.10 seconds
  • Conditions
    • NONE
  • Actions
    • Multiboard - Create a multiboard with 3 columns and (1 + Player_Count) rows, titled Vampirism Armagedon
    • Set Board = (Last created multiboard)
    • Multiboard - Set the width for Board item in column 0, row 0 to 10.00% of the total screen width
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to (1 + Player_Count) do
      • Actions
        • Multiboard - Set the text for Board item in column 1, row (For loop integer A) to (Name of Player (Player (For loop integer A)))
        • Multiboard - Set the icon for (Last created multiboard) item in column 1, row (For loop integer A) to ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNPeasant.blp
        • Multiboard - Set the icon for (Last created multiboard) item in column 2, row (For loop integer A) to UI\Feedback\Resources\ResourceLumber.blp

 

[DarkJustice]

i see...ill give this a try

 

[MajorKaza]

If that not help try hide/show board once again. Sometimes size change just not work automaticly.

 

[DarkJustice]

Trigger looks fine. Check you variables. At initialization you have Players_Count + 1 rows, but at update always 8. Im not sure if it will work when Players_Count + 1 not equals 8.

 

[DarkJustice]

if i PM you the map will you fix it 0.o this trigger is honestly pissing me off now

 

[MajorKaza]

So send me map. Here everything works.
