Leader board or multi board?

Whats the difference of leader board and multi board?

i want to learn how to make one however i am not sure of how to go about doing it. i have seen leaderboard and multiboard triggers in the world editor however it just doens't shows up. can someone help me?

LeaderBoards are the boards that appear during a game , and a multiborad is the scoreboard at the end of a game.

To make a leaderboard, fisrt choose an event or something to turn on the trigger, do create leaderboard for players(your choice), then add players to it and do show last created leaderboard. Hope it help(and works)!

No, that is incorrect.

A multiboard is a leaderboard with a lot more flexibility. If you just need to track one value, use a leaderboard. But since leaderboards can only store one value per player, you'll have to use a multiboard if you need more than one value-per-player stored.

And it depends actually, if you want the players to be sorted by any logic like who has the more points, leaderboards are somehow better, if you don't want that, use multiboards all the way.

AHHHHH!!!!! the 1 in dota is a multi board......so im still confused on how 2 get the little eye thinggy of the board when it starts and how 2 make kills show up on it!!! o_O

Leaderboard is a simple spreadsheet thingy that shows players, and for each player it shows one value. It also has the ability to sort players according to this value. Multiboards are more general, they are basicaly spreadsheets that can display any string in any number of rows and colums; but this generalisation makes them less specialised; unlike leaderboards, which know they are displaying players and player related numbers, so they can organise the display order according to that, multiboards are dumb, they only display strings, so they can't know that a string may be a converted integer value. To make multiboards do anything smart, you have to write the triggers yourself (unlike leaderboards, which sort automatically), but you can do sooo much more with Multiboards.

That's the general theory. Now for practice: The eye thingy is an icon; in each field, the multiboard is capable of showing one text string and one icon. If you don't want icons, just change the display style of the multiboard to not show icons (to change the display style for the whole multiboard, just use row&column values of 0), and it will only show strings.

For your next question, how to make kills show up on the board: you have to use the "modify field value" action and set the value of a field to (convert integer to string(PlayerKills)).

Multiboards allow more flexibility for more complex things while leader boards are simpler, but can only show one thing.

It really depends what you want to show.
