Multiboard Problem

11-24-2006, 12:43 AM

Alright, I took the tutorial on http://world-editor-tutorials.thehelper.net/ . It obviously doesnt work correctly as I saw from the outcome of some world tests in the world editor. I been begging people for help, for like EVER. My goal is to create 2 colums, 1 for players, 2 for status. I'm having major diffuclty. I'm not a complete newb, even I see some problems in this tutorial trigger. I then tried myself and still didnt get far with it. Here is what I got so far. I hope someone could help, or find the problem.

Code:

Multiboard1
    Events
        Time - Elapsed game time is 0.00 seconds
    Conditions
    Actions
        Multiboard - Create a multiboard with 2 columns and (1 + (Number of players in player_playing)) rows, titled Information
        Multiboard - Set the text for (Last created multiboard) item in column 1, row 1 to (Player Name + cc_endtag)
        Multiboard - Set the text for (Last created multiboard) item in column 2, row 1 to (Status + cc_endtag)
        For each (Integer A) from 1 to (1 + (Number of players in player_playing)), do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                -------- Style --------
                Multiboard - Set the display style for (Last created multiboard) item in column 1, row (Integer A) to Show text and Hide icons
                Multiboard - Set the display style for (Last created multiboard) item in column 2, row (Integer A) to Show text and Hide icons
                -------- Width --------
                Multiboard - Set the width for (Last created multiboard) item in column 1, row (Integer A) to 9.00% of the total screen width
                Multiboard - Set the width for (Last created multiboard) item in column 2, row (Integer A) to 6.00% of the total screen width
                -------- Add Players --------
                Set player_colour = (player_colour + 1)
                Set player_itself = (player_itself + 1)
                Multiboard - Set the text for (Last created multiboard) item in column 1, row player_colour to (cc_players[player_colour] + ((Name of (Player(player_itself))) + cc_endtag))
        Multiboard - Show (Last created multiboard)

Feroc1ty	sugest you use trigger-/trigger tags once puting in the trigger codes.

Uh... I could just give you a trigger I wrote (also in GUI) that works awesomely. Similar to the tutorial one, but it detects whether a player decides to use colours not originally assigned to them (like if the second player wants to use Yellow instead of blue). I use 3 columns though, not 2 (the second is for Kill, the third for Death).

I use 3 separate triggers - 1 for multiboard init, the other 2 is for each time a player dies/kills.

PM me if you want it.
