Scoreboard Rank column too close to karma column

[Michaelmikey3]

Hello, so I have this problem where my ranks such as senior admin collide into my Karma section of the scoreboard. How do I got about moving this section too the left a bit?

If you need anything just ask!

Where do you want it positioning?

Got er fixed. Just did it lazy way and added extra spaces to the strings xD coding is fun!

That's fine until the actual group name gets longer than the spaces allow for.
If you can't figure out best way of using screen co-ordinates (or however it currently spaces them), then at least practice/teach your self string.len, .find and .gsub
Could probably use something like
PSUEDO CODE...this is mostly for the idea logic

Code: [Select]

if string.len(to.string<group variable>) < <number of widest space you'd want> then --is column shorter than widest allowable?
 string.gsub or for loop to add spaces to end up to <number of widest space column you'd want> -- do something to fill in the space/widen it dynamically
else -- groupname is wider than you want
 cut it short in some way (gsub with ... at end 3/4 through group name?) -- use code to "shorten" the group name in the display (... is often used)
end -- check done

If you're using the "TTTScoreboardColumns" hook (documented here: http://ttt.badking.net/guides/hooks), then the panel object takes a third parameter, namely a width number. I don't know why that's not documented on the page, but the default is 80 (or 60, pretty sure it's 80).
