How to make player counter

[LAYR54321]

I’ve tried so many times but cant get it down how do we make a PROPER player counter

[Grahamathan15]

there are guides have you tried them?

[LAYR54321]

yep they all didn’t work

[LAYR54321]

I’ve asked so many times but they all give me ideas but they don’t work

[Ben_to_the_10th]

Not even this one?

@samalomlom

hello today i will show you how to make a LIVE player counter. that’s right, ITS LIVE aka it can see when a player leaves WOW!!!
anyways lets get to the tutorial

finished product

part 1

grab a counter and place it

then click on it and put a desired channel in the insert channel here 1 box

then place a relay

click on it again and put a the same channel in the insert channel here 1 box

part 2

place a repeater

then edit the settings (I’m pretty sure you know to click on it by now) and set interval to 0.5

then go to all options

and set the following things to whatever they say

part 3

place a lifecycle

then go to wires

now connect the lifecycle to the repeater and relay whilst checking the following boxes

then hook up the repeater to the counter

and the repeater to the relay

*important make sure you hook up the repeater to the counter THEN the relay

I was gonna put a link to another topic that stated how wires work etc. but I couldn’t find it sorry

it works so every 0.5 seconds it will reset the counter then practically instantly the relay set to all players will send and increment for every player in the game at the moment and since the counter is set to global at default it will display the amount of players that where in the game by adding up all the increments it got then when the repeater sends a signal again the entire process restarts (sounds complicated right)(thanks @ClicClac for the idea to ad an explanation)

just use trigger or wire repeaters instead of repeater on that guide

How to make a live player counter that ends the game at 1 player! 2/10

Before we start, credit to This is a add on guide that uses black holes guide to make it end at 1 player: Lets get started! NOTE: This will not work unless you place the wires in the right order

Materials

1 lifecycle 1 counter 1 trigger 1 property 1 relay

Step 1: The Live Player Counter

The life cycle and the relay should have default settings. Set the repeater stop strategy to receiving on a channel, and DON’T PUT ANYTHING. Make the task interval 0.5. Wire the repeater to the counter: …

it does work, you are just not wiring it correctly

ok thanks for the help

[LAYR54321]

I’ll tell you if it works

[LAYR54321]

should I use trigger or wire repeaters?is there a better one

[bob_the_tomato]

just use repeaters for the sake of it being easy

[bob_the_tomato]

but once you become more advanced, you can use wire repeaters/trigger clocks

[Grahamathan15]

there are simpler, but

Please Never Use Repeaters (and a guide on looping)

This is really important. I see so many people using repeaters, but they are literally THE MOST USELESS DEVICE IN THE GAME. Everything about a repeater is inefficient. Let’s start with their most basic functionality. Repeating a signal. Let’s say it sends out on channel X every second. WOAH! We can do that with triggers too! If it has a delay of one, sends on channel X, and receives on channel X, WOW! It’s literally the same exact thing but with TEN TIMES THE MEMORY EFFICIENCY.

Let me tell …

[LAYR54321]

okay thanks for the info

[LAYR54321]

how do you make it show up in the top corner like in snowy survival

[LAYR54321]

is that even possible?

[Ben_to_the_10th]

Use a game overlay device
Make a block with this code

[LAYR54321]

what should I make the code on (trigger,relay,counter)

[Ben_to_the_10th]

The game overlay

[LAYR54321]

Than what do I do after that block code?
