Okay. I have a counter for enemies, and a counter for lives; there are 2 lives counters, one for the east side and one for the west side of my td. This is my first real atempt at mapping and I think im doing fairly well, but I wont be able to die peacefully until this is resolved. I've been working on this for 5 hours, at the least. emote_sweat Attached is the TD, and in the Kill and Leaderboard categories where my problem seems to occur. The enemies counter works fine. And the east counter works, occasionally the west counter depending on what you modify but never both. I've tried everything. Integers, real numbers, all sorts of refresh systems. Fake things so it looks right. Please, for the love of god, help me. The odder thing is the damn thing keeps TRACK of lives lost. If you assign it to output text, it'll do it just fine and give you the number of lives left in chat every time a unit enters the exit region. but it refuses to update the leaderboard. Please, PLEASE help me! The file is left as is. It has gone through so many mods ive lost track. But just dont dl it for no reason...only dl it if u will help! |

Already found problem.. already fixing problem... Attached map, NOTE: I did modify some (ALOT) of your kill/leaderboard trigs, if its not what you want let me know (note: the "Enemy Count" now uses food used, less lag that way, so make sure you make all the units you spawn only use 1 food each, no more, no less.) PS. If you want more help, I will be glad to assist, e-mail me [email protected] :D EDIT: Deleted attachment, found small flaw, fixing, will repost. (The flaw being that the units you had set to spawn didn't use any food...) |

Ok, here it is, fixed (I suggest you play it and see what it looks like before trying to edit it. 8)) ) |

Well, I have to say thank you for putting in work on a stranger's request. Seeing as I just woke up, Im too deluded to understand what you did, exactly...but...guess what. Now the western side works and the eastern side doesn't. Its the thing from frickin hell, I swear. Everything else works fine though, thank you. May I ask if yo ucould try again to fix it? |

Sure. But at the moment I am leaving for work. Will see about taking another look at it when I get back. |

To you and to anyone else looking, would simply creating a new leaderboard work? I.e. a seperate one per counter? It may be inefficient, but at the moment im so annnoyed anythin that WORKS is okay with me. Sweet Holy Jesus! I did it! After 2 days of headbutting I finally got it to work. This is probably highly inefficient, but... Instead of CHANGING the values for the players (On the leaderboard, not in the variable), I temoved them, and then added them again. I.E every time a unit dies and it's in the west/east ern region, it will remove and repost informaiton rather than change it. I have no diea why it refuses to work any other way. |

Yup, thats ineffecient. but if it works.... If you would still like I could take a look at the map some more. But thats upto you as you already have it working. (don't fix whats not broken....) |
