Loop support for hologram lines

Open caukub opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Just making sure

  • [X] I have read the wiki and made sure, this feature is not yet in the plugin.
  • [X] I believe, that this feature is possible to implement.
  • [X] I made sure, that this feature has not been requested yet.

Problem

I think it would be useful for avoiding a lot of repetition mainly when creating leaderboards.

Feature

I would like to see loop support for hologram lines. What I mean by that is being able to create loops for same lines where index variable could be used as placeholder. This would remove a lot of repetition when creating and editing leaderboard holograms.

If it's still not clear what I mean, this example should clarify that.

pages:
- lines:
  - content: "TOP 10 RICHEST PLAYERS"
    height: 0.3
    
    loop:
      range: 1-10
      content: "{index}. %cmi_baltop_name_{index}% - %cmi_baltop_money_{index}%"
      height: 0.3

Alternatives

Currently it is only possible to edit the hologram line by line.

I generally can't see a benefit here. Making leaderboards isn't too difficult to do, especially if you use commands where you can copy-paste it with smaller adjustments to add new lines.

Also, this seems like a highly specific thing and somewhat out-of-scope for a Holograms plugin here and more like something suited for a Leaderboard plugin itself (i.e. a feature to auto-generate a Hologram with a leaderboard).

I'd say I see a point but I don't think it's something worth to implement. I mean, for a programmer e.g., those are very few lines to code to get something like this easily done too.

I think Andre described it well. We will not add this, sorry.
