    still crashes on my server around round 20 ish with the latest update. longer than before, but seems like it still doesn't work with z++. (or something else, because my servers are modded af)

    with this removed, can do 8 player origins games for 40+ rounds without issue.

    haven't attempted with nothing but this mod, though.

      INSANEMODE current theory is that any amount of functions that changes text on screen etc will get the client/server to crash, but since a lot of mods use the same/similar functions (code was inspired by multiple text changing scripts around on plutonium) you can only have so many before crashing.

      Best bet might be to just scratch the secondary score display and just print the player's score every time it changes, though i'm not sure how effective that would be.

          Updated the code, if you were having overflow errors try again, tho I can't confirm compatibility with Z++

          Amusedd It worked very well with 7 players, until some of them exited the server. We were 4 again now, (the score still activated because in that same match we were 7, as i said) played until round 7 or 8, and then the server crashed :c Tested with Zombies ++ and others mods.

            Could be crashing because the thread doesn't end on endgame or when the player disconnects. Try the script below.

            displayScore()
            {
            	self endon( "disconnect" );
            	level endon( "end_game" );
            	self.scoreText = CreateFontString("Objective", 1.5);
            	self.scoretext setPoint("CENTER", "RIGHT", "CENTER", "RIGHT");
            	self.scoreText.label = &"^2Score: ^7";
            	self.scoretext.alpha = 0;
            	while(true)
            	{
            		self.scoretext SetValue(self.score);
            		if(getplayers().size >= 5 && self.scoretext.alpha == 0)
            		{
            			self.scoretext FadeOverTime( 1 );
            			self.scoretext.alpha = 1;
            		}
            		else if(getplayers().size < 5 && self.scoretext.alpha >= 0)
            		{
            			self.scoretext FadeOverTime( 1 );
            			self.scoretext.alpha = 0;
            		}
            		wait 0.1;
            	}
            }
            

            Make sure to call the function in onPlayerConnected function (like below)

            onplayerconnected()
            {
            	for ( ;; )
            	{
            		level waittill( "connected", player );
            		player thread displayScore(); //add this line
            	}
            }

                Cahz I worked perfectly! Thank you! I tested it today and no crashes. I used several mods, included Zombies++, for those who wanna use this on their servers 😄

                        From someone who has zero experience messing around with dedicated servers, how can I add this into a plugin or something?
