lol i got my scoreboard working (thanks Dr.) but... i cant go higher than 9 secs...for a count down :X



what my problem is, is that the code i have:

Code: Show/Hide    if (countdown[0] > 0) { String s = "*objon "; s += countdown[0]; sendPublic(s); String s2 = "*objoff "; s2 += countdown[0] + 1; sendPublic(s2);    } }

only displays each of them seperatly in each colum

ex: lets say i am counting down from 60 secs

it would start in the score spot of 60 which in lvz format is 0...for the first colum in the score area. Is there anyway i can fix this?

Well, for this you have to use some maths. countdown[x] only contains one number. if you want to count down 1 minute you have to set countdown[x] to 60 (60 seconds). If your game should last 15 minutes you have to set countdown[x] to 15 * 60 = 900.

OK, until now it's easy. The next part of the job is more difficult. since countdown[x] only holds the number of seconds you have to calculate the number of minutes and seconds out of countdown[x].


1.
ok, lets calculate now:
first lets get the minutes
mins = int(countdown[x] / 60)

ok, how many seconds are these minutes?
minsInSeconds = mins * 60

finally let's see how many seconds are left
secs = countdown[x] - minsInSeconds

i hope you understand everything till now.


2.
now, next step. divide the minutes and seconds in 1- and 10-digits:
tenMins = int(mins / 10)
oneMins = mins - int(mins / 10) * 10

tenSecs = int(secs / 10)
oneSecs = secs - int(mins / 10) * 10


3.
Phew, not so easy. But be happy, we are nearly finished. Finally you have to convert the tenMins, oneMins, tenSecs and oneSecs to the object ids and turn them on/off.

in your case do this:
tenMins + 1
oneMins + 10
tenSecs + 20
oneSecs + 30


For the score it is very similar. i'm sure you will figure that out by yourself.

Actually that is the scoreboard me and Xviper made for Premier League. The blue boxes between time and score are meant for squad's names, well 3 chars of them. In practice matches 100 and 200 (the freqs of the teams) were used.
