Try this:
Code: Select all
local.as = 0
local.al = 0
for ( local.n = 0 ; local.n < $player.size ; local.n++ )
{
if ( $player[local.n].dmteam == "axis" )
{
local.as++
}
else
{
local.al++
}
}
You forgot a bracket after 'else' and arrays start at index 0
If you looked at the console, you would probably have seen the script error printed out there
Not sure if you will count spectators as allied in this way...

Nope, not targetname arrays, they start at 1. Vector arrays and strings start indexing at 0 though

Ehr... yes...
I guess c / C++ and a naive wish for standardization took over there.
jv is once again correct. thanx.
What the h**l was the language designer thinking?

Well to be honest I like starting arrays at 1... it just seems more convenient

I dont mind starting at 1, its starting different arrays in different ways I cant see the point of.
