Scoreboard Help

That was quoting your post of suggesting using HashMaps...

FINAL POST: Listen. If your having issues with the ScoreBoard on getting kills using the ScoreBoard, then you need to use a single HashMap for your issue. That's my final post. Because, right now, I don't think anyone is understanding your issue with the ScoreBoard. HashMaps do not intend to take up a lot of memory, unless they're statics.

Anyway, I think getting kills from the ScoreBoard is bad. HashMaps are a bit more simple to use I would say.

I will research a bit more on ScoreBoards.

For the 695th time, I can't use HashMaps because there are going to be different stats on the scoreboard, which will use different types of data.

 

Oo, well anyways, your scoreboard won't update after you get a kill, because you check if the scoreboard is null.
Because you already set a scoreboard onJoin, the updateScoreboard won't ever do anything.

Oh yeah

I'll fix that, but do you have any ideas on why it doesn't even show when I join?

*just guessing, might not solve anything*

Code:

updateScoreboard(p);
p.setScoreboard(board);

remove the p.setScoreboard(board); in onJoin.

Didn't work

add debug messages everywhere : D

System.out.println("DEBUG MESSAGE");
System.out.println("ANOTHER DEBUG MESSAGE");
System.out.println("MORE DEBUG");

 

MrTang

Well thats weird, after I added the debug messages the scoreboard showed up..

Ok, now the scoreboard shows up, but whenever I get a kill, it creates a new line called thesamster8 and increments that. How do I make it so that it only increments the 'Kills' thing and make it so that only that player can see their kills, because I logged on in an alt and he could see the 'thesamster8: 1' line.

Thanks
