Leaderboard Problems!

Hi I have a leaderboard in my map that keeps track of all the kills you make. It works great for everyone (players 2-8) except red (player 1). What happens is that the integer array "TotalKills" for player one red wont change until he kills two units, and only then it will jump to 1 (instead of 2). I know it has something to do with the leaderboard because i made a trigger to display totalkills[player number of player 1 red] when i type "sk" and It always shows the correct number of kills but that number is not the same number showing on my leaderboard. [For example I kill two units as player 1 red. I type "sk", it displays "2", leaderboard for player 1 red says "1" kill(s)]

Here is the trigger(s) for my leaderboard.
Get kills
Code:
Kills
    Events
        Unit - A unit Dies
    Conditions
        (Owner of (Dying unit)) Not equal to (Owner of (Killing unit))
        (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to Golem Part
        (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to Dummy
        (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to Skeleton Warrior
        (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to Hero Golem Part
        (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to Base Destroyer
    Actions
        Set TotalKills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] = (TotalKills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] + 1)
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                TotalLevels[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] Equal to 0
                TotalKills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] Greater than or equal to 500
            Then - Actions
                Set TotalLevels[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] = 1
            Else - Actions
                Do nothing
setup board
Code:
Setup Board
    Events
        Time - Elapsed game time is 0.01 seconds
    Conditions
    Actions
        Leaderboard - Create a leaderboard for (All players controlled by a User player) titled Kills
        Set TheLeaderBoard = (Last created leaderboard)
        For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (If (((Player((Integer A))) slot status) Equal to Is playing) then do (Leaderboard - Add (Player((Integer A))) to TheLeaderBoard with label (Name of (Player((Integer A)))) and value TotalKills[(Player number of (Player((Integer A))))]) else do (Do nothing))
        Leaderboard - Remove Player 9 (Gray) from (Last created leaderboard)
update board
Code:
Update Board
    Events
        Unit - A unit Dies
    Conditions
    Actions
        For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (If (((Player((Integer A))) slot status) Equal to Is playing) then do (Leaderboard - Change the value for (Player((Integer A))) in TheLeaderBoard to TotalKills[(Integer A)]) else do (Do nothing))
        Leaderboard - Sort TheLeaderBoard by Value in Descending order
Any help would be greatly appreciated as i have been dealing with this problem for quite a while now. Thanks for reading!

My guess is that the leaderboard is being updated for Player 1 before his number of kills is updated. Try removing the event from the Update Board trigger, and instead have the Kills trigger run the Update Board trigger. Alternatively, you could try putting a small wait action (about 0.05 seconds) at the start of the Update Board trigger.

Thanks the Lumpy, It seems to work fine now that I added the "run" update instead of with the even "a unit dies". +rep

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
