Changes are instantly applied for all players
To avoid this you should edit the config file and then reload the plugin

Instead of /esb you can also use /easyscoreboard

/esb set <Line> <Text>

<Line> is the line of the scoreboard and can be anything between 0 and 15. The line 0 is the title of the scoreboard.

<Text> Is the text the line will contain. To use spaces the hole text must be in quotation marks (see examples).

To use multiple colors and styles separate the parts with semicolons (;)

/esb clear will clear the scoreboard and remove it from every player.

/esb show shows the scoreboard to the player who uses this command

/esb hide hides the scoreboard from the player who uses this command

/esb showall shows the scoreboard to all players (except if they are on the list of players that don't receive the scoreboard)

/esb hideall hides the scoreboard from all players without exceptions

/esb countdown set <Seconds> <Command>

The `<Command>` will be executed after the countdown is over.
You can to anything from writing in the chat over placing a block to summon a monster.
If you want to use quotation marks (") in the command, just replace them with
single quotation marks (')

/esb countdown xp <true/false> Choose if the countdown should be shown in the experience bar of the players.

Using the XP countdown is not recommended for countdowns larger than a few 
minutes as this countdown wont be seperated in hours, minutes and seconds.

/esb countdown chat <true/false> Choose if there should be a countdown in the chat.

/esb countdown title <true/false> Choose if there should be a countdown in the form of titles.

The countdown in the title and in the chat will be shown like this:

Notification for every hour if the remaining time is larger than 3600 seconds (1 hour)
Notification for every 10 minutes if the remaining time is beetwen 600 seconds and 3600 seconds (10 and 60 minutes)
Notification for every minute if the remaining time is beetwen 60 seconds and 600 seconds (1 and 10 minutes)
Notification for every 10 seconds if the remaining time is beetwen 10 and 60 seconds
Notification for every second if the remaining time is smaller than 5 seconds

/esb countdown start starts the countdown.

/esb countdown stop stops the countdown. If you run start afterwards it will continue.

/esb countdown reset resets the countdown to the time defined.

To reload the config file, just use the Plugin reload command from Sponge: /sponge plugins reload. If you made any changes to the config file these will be applied instantly.

easyscoreboard.use easyscoreboard.set easyscoreboard.clear easyscoreboard.show easyscoreboard.hide easyscoreboard.showall easyscoreboard.hideall easyscoreboard.reload easyscoreboard.countdown.use easyscoreboard.countdown.set easyscoreboard.countdown.start easyscoreboard.countdown.stop easyscoreboard.countdown.reset easyscoreboard.countdown.xp easyscoreboard.countdown.chat easyscoreboard.countdown.title

In the <Text> argument there are a few strings that will be replaced.

To use multiple colors and/or styles separate the parts of the text with semicolons (;): /esb set 1 "AQUAC;BLUEo;GOLDl;GREENo;YELLOWr;REDf;WHITEu;BLACKl" /esb set 1 "ITALICDifferent ;BOLDStyles"

• AQUA or &b
• BLUE or &9
• GOLD or &6
• GREEN or &a
• YELLOW or &e
• RED or &c
• LIGHT_PURPLE or &d
• DARK_AQUA or &3
• DARK_BLUE or &1
• DARK_GREEN or &2
• DARK_RED or &4
• DARK_PURPLE or &d
• WHITE or &f
• GRAY or &7
• DARK_GRAY or &8
• BLACK or &0

These will be replaced with the equivalent color.

• BOLD or &l
• OBFUSCATED or &k
• ITALIC or &o
• STRIKETHROUGH or &m
• UNDERLINE or &n

%PLAYERNAME% will be replaced with the name of the player who sees the scoreboard

%PLAYERBALANCE% will show the balance of the player, if you have installed an economy plugin, that uses the Sponge Economy API

Please note that the usage of `PLAYERBALANCE` will give you  
an error in the console on 1.8 because the economy API is 
not implemented in this version.

%ONLINECOUNT% will be replaced with the number of online players

Using "PLAYERNAME"/"PLAYERBALANCE" together with "ONLINECOUNT"
is not recommended for large servers because it has to compute
a new scoreboard for every player if a player leaves or joines

%COUNTDOWN% will be replaced with the time left of the countdown. The time is wrapped into hours, minutes and seconds.

%TPS% will be replaced with the average ticks of the last 10 seconds. It will update every 10 seconds.

%MTIME% is the current time Minecraft. Updates every 8.35 seconds aka every 10 Minecraft-Minutes.

%STIME% is the time the server has. Updates every 60 seconds.

/esb set 0 "BOLDGREENHello %PLAYERNAME%"

/esb set 1 "DARK_PURPLEWelcome to the ;YELLOWBOLDse;GOLDBOLDrv;REDBOLDer"

/esb set 2 "--------------------"

/esb set 3 "GREENMoney:"
