I have dxscoreboard and i have only ping in it so i am asking how to add more things like ID State like (dead waiting not ready or alive) then i have the res scorefps but it only works for the old scoreboard not for dx

Thanks for help in advance

Use exports.scoreboard:scoreboardAddColumn

More info here: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Resource:Dxscoreboard

So if i want a column named Fps with the res scorefps where should i put it and what should i put

[proracer]

So for example if you have FPS resource which saves element data with string: "FPS" you will do this...

addEventHandler ( "onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot,  
    function ( ) 
        exports.scoreboard:scoreboardAddColumn ( "FPS" ) 
        setElementData ( getLocalPlayer ( ), "FPS", 0 ) 
    end 
) 
  
-- please note that for to add column you must add it's name 
-- as same as the name when you set player's element data

And how about state likee dead,alive,waiting,not ready

And where i put this thing

[Castillo]

proracer, you are adding a column every time a player joins o_o

[proracer]

Sorry .. I fixed it now.

[Castillo]

and that if i'm right, it will add a column every time a resource is started.

addEventHandler ( "onClientResourceStart", getRootElement(), 
function (resource) 
if resource == getThisResource() then 
        exports.scoreboard:scoreboardAddColumn ( "FPS" ) 
        setElementData ( getLocalPlayer ( ), "FPS", 0 ) 
         end 
    end 
) 

[proracer]

I also fixed that before ...

DeadTeamRacing, doesn't DX Scoreboard have that columns as default?

[DeadTeamRacing]

no only ping

You have to create an element data like this:

(Use the code of Solidsnake and add your element data:)

addEventHandler ( "onClientResourceStart", getRootElement(), 
function (resource) 
if resource == getThisResource() then 
        exports.scoreboard:scoreboardAddColumn ( "FPS" ) 
        exports.scoreboard:scoreboardAddColumn ( "State" ) 
        setElementData ( getLocalPlayer ( ), "FPS", 0 ) 
        setElementData(  getLocalPlayer ( ), "State", "Waiting" ) 
        end 
    end 
) 

Add change his state whenever you want like this:

setElementData( thePlayer, "State", "Alive" ) 

set it to "Alive" or "Waiting" or "Dead"

Exemple:

function onPlayerDead( ammo, attacker, weapon, bodypart ) 
    setElementData( source, "State", "Dead" ) 
end 
addEventHandler( "onClientPlayerWasted", getRootElement(), onPlayerDead )

im not sure if u understiid my point i just want that it shows whetever player is alive waiting or dead in the dxscoreboard

[Castillo]

What gamemode are you using?

[Citizen]

im not sure if u understiid my point i just want that it shows whetever player is alive waiting or dead in the dxscoreboard

Yeah I understoud it

The dxScoreboard make a getElementData each seconds ( maybe or 2 sec IDK ) so you just have to specify to your scoreboard the ElementData by this line:

 exports.scoreboard:scoreboardAddColumn( "theElementData" ) 

When the dxScoreboard knows the ElementData to get, you can:

setElementData( thePlayer, "ElementData", theValue ) 

when and wherever you want and the scoreboard update the column automatically.

That's right ? ( Maybe I'm wrong ? )

EDIT: I checked the dxscoreboard and I'm right

For the column ping in your scoreboard try this:

add this with the others exports.scoreboard:scoreboardAddColumn:

 exports.scoreboard:scoreboardAddColumn( "PING" ) 

and put it anywhere:

function refreshPing() 
    local ping = getPlayerPing( getLocalPlayer() ) 
    setElementData( getLocalPlayer(), "PING", ping ) 
end 
setTimer( refreshPing, 2000, 0 ) 

and It might works

[DeadTeamRacing]

the ping is there already

[Citizen]

no only ping

lol sorry, I undestood that you want only the ping . My bad

[DeadTeamRacing]

No prob

[TAPL]

loool

i thinks what you need to do is this:

change your resource name from dxscoreboard to scoreboard

[Deagle]

and that if i'm right, it will add a column every time a resource is started.

addEventHandler ( "onClientResourceStart", getRootElement(), 
function (resource) 
if resource == getThisResource() then 
        exports.scoreboard:scoreboardAddColumn ( "FPS" ) 
        setElementData ( getLocalPlayer ( ), "FPS", 0 ) 
         end 
    end 
) 

Where i add this ?

[Castillo]

Into a client side script.

[CowTurbo]

ping collumn is default there.

[DeadTeamRacing]
