There's my script...
The problem is when the script fires with multiple players in game, the board gets all messed up. I checked everything, and I can't seem to find what's wrong. Will anyone help?

EDIT : The player names don't show up. That's the main problem.

There are no conditions, because I was testing it.

Jazradel	That code really confuses me. The problem is that your creating a new multiboard for every player. Basically move everything that doesn't refer to the (Picked Player) out of that loop.

Monky-Master	I'm pretty sure it's only one Multi Board right? If pick every player and create a multi board and put them in it, it should only be one.

Malf	Different players can have different multiboards. You can create 9 multiboards for 9 players, but only one will be shown to them. In your case, you should show the multiboard you want for the player and not to everyone else. You would have to use JASS for this, GUI(The poor man's JASS) is just far too lame.

Monky-Master	To me, JASS is like Japanese. I barely understand it, and I barely can write it. This is what happens when you work with GUI for 3 years sadly. Well, I guess I gotta find a new way to do this then I suppose.
