Why Fly Scoreboard Elevates Your Stream
Scoreboards are the heartbeat of a sports or esports broadcast. Viewers rely on them for context, progress, and stakes. Fly Scoreboard was designed to make that heartbeat precise and visually consistent. Because the plugin runs inside OBS, interactions are instant and reliable no alt-tabbing, no window juggling, and no awkward browser refreshes. The result is a smooth production flow that lets you focus on commentary, camera work, and your audience.
The template approach is another key advantage. You can match your club colors, add sponsor logos, or create a minimalist look for fast-paced esports all using plain HTML/CSS. Teams working across multiple computers can share templates and presets, ensuring consistency from match to match.

Fly Scoreboard ships with clean defaults that work out of the box, but the real power lies in its templates.

- Hotkeys & Shortcuts: Map common actions (start/stop timer, swap teams) to OBS hotkeys for fewer clicks during live play.
