Where can I find a webpage to make scoreboard?

[LeonCrop]

Hi, I have search and I can't find a tutorial on how to make a scoreboard, I need help to find it.

Honestly I have looked for the same thing... and couldn't find anything, I have had some success using darkrps scoreboard as something to compare too, not the easiest way to learn but sure is interesting :)

I think it would be very difficult to make a website to show you how to make a scoreboard because you're making it how you want it. That is unless you're looking for these two functions.
[LUA]function GM:ScoreboardShow()
-- code
end
function GM:ScoreboardHide()
-- code
end[/LUA]

Here's the BASE gamemode scoreboard including the ScoreboardShow and ScoreboardHide functions filled out.

If you're new to Lua, maybe start by copying the entire file, and modifying it bit by bit until you understand what each line does?

[lua]surface.CreateFont( "ScoreboardDefault",
{
font = "Helvetica",
size = 22,
weight = 800
})

surface.CreateFont( "ScoreboardDefaultTitle",
{
font = "Helvetica",
size = 32,
weight = 800
})
