could you use the scratch blocks to re do that cde plz. I need code 2!

The basic concept is set the PLAYERS variable to 0 and go through a loop, checking if each player is active. If so, you can change PLAYERS by 1.

There is probably a variable called “active” or something like that in each player clone that tells you if that player is active. If this is the case, just have a different sprite set PLAYERS to 0 and then add an

if <[active] > [0]> then //assumes "active" variable is greater than 0 when the player is active
change [PLAYERS v] by (1)
end

//in a different sprite that runs its code before the "Cloud players" sprite:
set [PLAYERS v] to [0]

thx!

maybe we can use the “current second” operator and always refresh the player count every second?

when green flag clicked
change [player active v] by (1)
forever
set [.timer v] to (timer)
end

when [timer v] > ((.timer v) + (0.01))
change [player active v] by (-1)

I hope this might help!

I think I figured it out: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1039648344/ check out the code in this, the thing is if you make a detector for the stop button the people playing do not always press the stop button so I made a list saying the people online, then I made it so if you are on the list twice like when you click the flag 2 times it will detect it, delete one of the 2 usernames that are yours, and that goes to the variable Players Online, now if you join twice it only counts it as once and it is the same if you join 3 times or 4 and so on
