Scoreboard Updating

Hello, I am having trouble on updating my scoreboard.
Here is the method below to get the scoreboard. I want to add an update feature in there so I don't have to call 'update' all the time. I know that you have to get the entry and replace the entry. But I'm unsure on how to do this. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Code:

Code:

        public Scoreboard getScoreboard(Player p, Arena a) {
            objective.setDisplaySlot(DisplaySlot.SIDEBAR);
            objective.setDisplayName(this.toString());
            List<String> lines = Messages.getStringList("Lines", p, a);
            lines = Variables.replaceVariablesList(lines, a, p);
            AtomicInteger i = new AtomicInteger(lines.size());
            lines.forEach(line -> {
                //update
                scoreboard.getEntries().forEach(entry -> {
                    Score score = (Score) scoreboard.getScores(entry);
                    if (score.getObjective().equals(this.toString())) {
                        //stuck here
                    }
                  
                });
              
                // create one
                Score score;
                score = objective.getScore(line);
                score.setScore(i.getAndDecrement());
            });
            return scoreboard;
        }

 

You want to clear the player's scoreboard before updating with:

Code:

p.setScoreboard(Bukkit.getScoreboardManager().getNewScoreboard());

 

@ChucknorisSR I have tried this but this seems to make the scoreboard flash as its adding and removing a scoreboard. I do know that you need to replace an entry but I do not know how to.

 

@ItsComits
You can try for looping through all the entries. Once you find the entry you want to replace, remove it and create a new entry, using the same score.

 

@Zombie_Striker Thanks for your reply. I have this to check for the entry equals to the line string but for some odd reason, I cannot get access to the line string which is within the lines loop

Code:

            lines.forEach(line -> {
                //update
                scoreboard.getEntries().forEach(entry -> {
                    Score score = (Score) scoreboard.getScores(entry);
                    if (score.getObjective().equals(this.toString())) {
                        if (score.getEntry().equalsIgnoreCase(line)) {
                         
                        }
                    }
                });
                // create one
                Score score;
                score = objective.getScore(line);
                score.setScore(i.getAndDecrement());
            });

 

@Zombie_Striker @ChucknorisSR Hello. The problem that I am having is that every time the scoreboard is updated the score is removed from the scoreboard. Any ideas on how I can replace the entry? Here is the code the error is currently with:

Code:

            AtomicInteger i = new AtomicInteger(lines.size());
            lines.forEach(line -> {
                String s = line;
                scoreboard.getEntries().forEach(entry -> {
                    if (!(entry.equalsIgnoreCase(s))) {
                        scoreboard.resetScores(entry);
                        Score score = (Score) scoreboard.getScores(s);
                        score.setScore(i.getAndDecrement());
                        p.setScoreboard(scoreboard);
                    }
                });
            });

 

Bump. Still can't get the problem solved.
