Refreshing Class on Custom Scoreboard

[FlyingSpoon]

I made a custom scoreboard, and I have set element data's but I am trying to refresh it on my scoreboard, because if player changes class then it should change on scoreboard -

I get no errors -

Client Side

function refresh() 
data = getElementData(getLocalPlayer(), "Class") 
end 
setTimer ( refresh, 51, 0 ) 
  
dxDrawText(data, classx, y+i*20.5) 
  

It's frozen as the previous class and doesnt change

[Anubhav]

Use onClientRender on dxDrawText

[Tekken]

addEventHandler("onClientRender", getRootElement(), function() 
    dxDrawText(getElementData(getLocalPlayer(), "Class"), classx, y+i*20.5); 
end); 

much better!

I dont need client renders,

I wanted to know if that was the right way to refresh the element data, I have my renders already.

You didn't got me, instead of refreshing the data by a timer you can just replace data variable with "getElementData(getLocalPlayer(), "Class")" in your event.

onClientRender event is already like a timer that update enywhere from 25-100 (depends of how many fps you have) times a second.

Nevermind I found out that my problem was I was using setAccountData, and doing getElementData, but how can I make getElementData permanent like save it, so player still has it after reconnect?

all what you need is :

-- Function  
getElementData() 
setElementData() 
getAccountData() 
setAccountData() 
  
-- Events 
onPlayerQuit 
onPlayerLogin
