Multiboard Help Needed

[death_knight]

Hey guys,

I have a multiboard that shows the current street and suburb that the player's unit is in, but I'm making the map multiplayer.

If, for example, I had two players, I want to be able to show Player 1's Unit's Location on the multiboard to Player 1 without showing it to Player 2 on the multiboard and vice-versa.

I want to know if this is possible?

Cheers

This requires a bit of JASS knowledge to display to only one player.

However there might be a way to create seperate MultiBoard's for individual players, but I'm not sure if this is do-able in GUI. (havent made one in a while, sorry)

 

[death_knight]

how complicated is the JASS? Because if it's not overly complicated, then you could give the required code and then I could just copy and past it where it needs to be.

Cant help you there sorry, perhaps use search and maybe you will find something..


Othewise you are just going to have to wait for someone else to reply with the solution.

I never touched the multiboard functions in Trigger Editor myself and just found out that you can't show it to each individual player with GUI alone after reading this thread and was afraid the jass might be difficult,

but after a little search , here's the solution:

• Actions
  • Custom script: if Player(0) == GetLocalPlayer() then
  • Multiboard - Show (Last created multiboard)
  • Custom script: endif

        Custom script:   endif
        Trigger - Run Multiboard Create Player 2 <gen> (checking conditions)

The multiboard is created and then I've put in the code that you told me to put in (I have 6 human player's), but when I test the map in-game, the multiboard doesn't appear.

What's the problem?

You do realise entering 0 in the column or row values selects all of them, right?

For your trigger, try not showing with the GUI, and ONLY showing it with the GUI/JASS mix.

• Multiboard - Show (Last created multiboard)
  • Set MultiboardPlayer1 = (Last created multiboard)
  • Custom script: if Player(0) == GetLocalPlayer() then
  • Multiboard - Show MultiboardPlayer1
  • Custom script: endif
  • Custom script: if Player(1) == GetLocalPlayer() then
  • Multiboard - Hide MultiboardPlayer1
  • Custom script: endif
  • Custom script: if Player(2) == GetLocalPlayer() then
  • Multiboard - Hide MultiboardPlayer1
  • Custom script: endif
  • Custom script: if Player(3) == GetLocalPlayer() then
  • Multiboard - Hide MultiboardPlayer1
  • Custom script: endif
  • Custom script: if Player(4) == GetLocalPlayer() then
  • Multiboard - Hide MultiboardPlayer1
  • Custom script: endif
  • Custom script: if Player(5) == GetLocalPlayer() then
  • Multiboard - Hide MultiboardPlayer1
  • Custom script: endif
  • Custom script: if Player(8) == GetLocalPlayer() then
  • Multiboard - Hide MultiboardPlayer1
  • Custom script: endif
  • Custom script: if Player(9) == GetLocalPlayer() then
  • Multiboard - Hide MultiboardPlayer1
  • Custom script: endif
  • Trigger - Run Multiboard Create Player 2 <gen> (checking conditions)

I dont get it. Why do You show multiboard for all players and then You hide it for all except one? Why not just:

• Custom script: if Player(0) == GetLocalPlayer() then
  • Multiboard - Show (Last Created Multiboard)
  • Custom script: endif
  • Trigger - Run Multiboard Create Player 2 <gen> (checking conditions)

And do You really have to make 100 triggers to do one thing? Isn't it possible to use loop?

 

[death_knight]

Well thats the idea. I have 6 players and 6 different multiboards (1 for each player), and each player has their own multiboard that no other player is supposed to see

EDIT: I still have the problem that it doesn't show the multiboard to the player i want it to.
