Issue description

I'd like to request the ability to display scoreboard values in GUI's. It's currently possible in single player by assigning scoreboard values to GLOBAL_SESSION variables but on multiplayer that doesn't work.

Issue comments

NBT tags don't persist through death. Also, I'm talking about GUI's, not the overlays. Are you sure there's no way to do this? It would be a worth something to me.

Actually just realized I can just set NBT values to scoreboard values every time a player logs in or dies. Still, can you do that got GUI's and not just overlays?

There is a way around this, but you can still use scoreboard and pass to NBT as you suggested.

We will add this to GUIs and Overlays.

I'd chip in a donation of $20 to see this get done sooner rather than later. Not much, but I'm also not the only one interested in it.

I suggest you to remember me again when the first 2020.2 snapshot will be released in this ticket: https://mcreator.net/tracker/issue/55702

I don't want to promise you this too soon as I need to get a better estimate when I can realistically add this, as syncing NBT to UIs is not that trivial.

If syncing scoreboard values to GUI's is somehow easier then I would prefer that. There's already a vanilla command that lets players see what they are on the overlay, even.
