How to Make a Money Scoreboard in Minecraft Bedrock
Creating a money scoreboard in Minecraft Bedrock can be a fun and rewarding project. Whether you’re looking to track player wealth in a mini-game or simply want to add a touch of realism to your server, this guide will walk you through the process step by step.
Understanding Scoreboards
Before diving into the specifics of creating a money scoreboard, it’s important to understand how Minecraft’s scoreboard system works. Scoreboards are used to track various types of data, such as player statistics, game progress, and, in this case, money.
Scoreboards consist of objectives, which are the targets for tracking data, and entries, which are the individual data points. In our case, we’ll be using an objective to track money and entries for each player.
Setting Up the Objective
1. Open the game and navigate to the world where you want to create the scoreboard.
2. Open the inventory by pressing the “E” key.
3. Find the “Scoreboard” item in your inventory and select it.
4. Click on the “Create Objective” button and give your objective a name, such as “Money”.
5. Choose the “Display” mode for your objective. For a money scoreboard, you’ll want to select “List” or “Sidebar” to show the money of each player.
6. Click “Save” to create the objective.
Adding Players to the Scoreboard
1. With the objective still selected, click on the “Add Entry” button.
2. Enter the name of each player you want to track and click “Add” for each one.
3. Repeat this process for all players you want to include in the scoreboard.
Configuring the Scoreboard
1. With the objective still selected, click on the “Edit” button.
2. In the “Entries” section, you’ll see a list of all the players you’ve added. You can change their names or remove them by clicking the “X” next to their name.
3. In the “Objective” section, you can change the name of the objective or the display mode if needed.
4. Click “Save” to apply your changes.
Tracking Money
1. To track money, you’ll need to use a plugin or a custom command. If you’re using a plugin, follow the instructions provided by the plugin’s developer to set it up.
2. If you’re using a custom command, you’ll need to create a new command that adds or subtracts money from the player’s inventory and updates the scoreboard accordingly.
3. For example, you could create a command like “/money add
Testing the Scoreboard
1. Once you’ve set up the scoreboard and money tracking, it’s time to test it out.
2. Use the command you created to add money to a player’s inventory and check if the scoreboard updates accordingly.
3. Repeat this process for each player to ensure the scoreboard is working correctly.
Customizing the Scoreboard
1. To customize the appearance of your scoreboard, you can use the “Sidebar” display mode and add custom text to the sidebar.
2. To add custom text, click on the “Sidebar” tab in the scoreboard editor and click the “Add Text” button.
3. Enter the text you want to display, such as “Player Money:”, and click “Save” to apply it to the scoreboard.
Conclusion
Creating a money scoreboard in Minecraft Bedrock can be a fun and rewarding project. By following this guide, you can set up a scoreboard to track player wealth and add a touch of realism to your server. Whether you’re using a plugin or a custom command, the process is relatively straightforward and can be customized to fit your needs.
