Solved How to update a sign every 3 seconds?

[Dxstin]

Hello, I'm doing a lobby system for my server and I'm stuck with a problem with the sign system: How can I update a sign every 3 seconds so that the sign shows the number of players in a world (and so that the number is updated as well)?

You could do something similar to this

every 3 seconds:
    set {_sign} to block at location 100, 100, 100 in world "world"
    loop all players in world "world":
        add 1 to {_players}
    set line 3 of {_sign} to "%{_players}%"

Obviously update your location, and should be exact (ex, 100.5)
But hopefully this helps, and if theres anything which doesn't make sense i can explain c:

Can you help me please with this:
on rightclick on a sign:
if line 1 is "&8◆ &cSkyWarsFFA-1 &8◆":
if line 2 is "&8【&a&lONLINE &8】":
make player execute command "swffajoin"

The sign will not work if the number of players is shown on the sign.

you sure your not changing line 1 or 2 by accident?

I create the join signs with line 1: [swffa]
and line 2: swffa-1 . Then the sign is automatically processed by the number of players and you cannot join with the sign anymore

 

[Ankoki]

does it work when you remove the if’s?

 

[Dxstin]

It doesn't work

 

[Ankoki]

weird, maybe try “/swffajoin” or execute console command “sudo %player% swffajoin”

I restarted the server and now it works, don't know what it is but thanks!

also, for it to be more accurate and less potencially laggy, instad of every 3 seconds:, you could use something like this

on world change:
    wait 1 tick
    # update sign
