Scoreboard

[Norhy]

So, i've created a scoreboard collum, "deaths". Now if a player dies, he gets +1 death. However the deaths don't show in the collum / scoreboard.

Code:

addEventHandler("onClientRender",getRootElement(), 
    function() 
        if not starttick then 
            starttick = getTickCount() 
        end 
        currenttick = getTickCount() 
        if currenttick - starttick >= 1000 then 
            setElementData(player,"deaths", getElementData ( source, "deaths" ) ) 
            starttick =  getTickCount() 
        end 
    end 
) 
function updateDeaths() 
    for k, v in ipairs(getElementsByType('player')) do 
        local deaths = tonumber ( getElementData ( v, "deaths" ) ) 
        setElementData(v,"Deaths",deaths ) 
    end 
end 
setTimer(updateDeaths, 1000000, 0) 

Full code:

local starttick, currenttick 
local player = getLocalPlayer() 
addEventHandler("onClientRender",getRootElement(), 
    function() 
        if not starttick then 
            starttick = getTickCount() 
        end 
        currenttick = getTickCount() 
        if currenttick - starttick >= 1000 then 
            setElementData(player,"Money",getPlayerMoney( player ) )  
            starttick =  getTickCount() 
        end 
    end 
) 
function updateMoney() 
    for k, v in ipairs(getElementsByType('player')) do 
        local money = getPlayerMoney(v) 
        setElementData(v,"Money",money ) 
    end 
end 
setTimer(updateMoney, 1000000, 0) 
  
addEventHandler("onClientRender",getRootElement(), 
    function() 
        if not starttick then 
            starttick = getTickCount() 
        end 
        currenttick = getTickCount() 
        if currenttick - starttick >= 1000 then 
            setElementData(player,"deaths", getElementData ( source, "deaths" ) ) 
            starttick =  getTickCount() 
        end 
    end 
) 
function updateDeaths() 
    for k, v in ipairs(getElementsByType('player')) do 
        local deaths = tonumber ( getElementData ( v, "deaths" ) ) 
        setElementData(v,"Deaths",deaths ) 
    end 
end 
setTimer(updateDeaths, 1000000, 0) 
  

Death, reward code:

function killDeaths ( ) 
    local deaths = tonumber ( getElementData ( source, "deaths" ) ) or 0 
    setElementData ( source, "deaths", deaths + 1 ) 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerWasted", getRootElement (), killDeaths )

        call(getResourceFromName("scoreboard"), "addScoreboardColumn", "deaths") 
    end)

    deaths = getElementData(source,"deaths") 
    setElementData(source, "deaths",deaths) 
end

What is the point of getting the data and setting it again without any change?
