Note, the leaderboard appears to have been slightly corrupted... 1. Hit the flag. 2. Wait for the game to start. 3. Press and release button(s) as quickly as possible. Tips: - Only use 1 button as all must be released to score. - Running in turbo mode may help slightly. - Don't hit the flag before your highscore saves. Hotkeys: S - Start a new game. L - Show the Leaderboard. P - Start the player counter.
I have a newer leaderboard in my Forumer Quiz project! It is much more specialized though so it may be difficult to use in your own projects. https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/569286233/ This is a demo project for a stripped down leaderboard engine I've created. Hopefully this will be a good test to help me work out any bugs before the full version. This has been optimized for usernames and scores which gives it a space advantage over cloud lists. It uses 2 digits per username character 2 digits to hold score length and username end + 1 digit per score character. If the average username length was 12 and the score length 2, this could hold about 9 scores per cloud variable. This project uses 7 so it can hold about 63 highscores. It's pretty easy to add this to your project. Simply copy sprite Leaderboard and make sure your project uses a variable named Score. Whenever you want to update the leaderboard and highscore, broadcast "Update Leaderboard." There's more information about how this works and some ideas I have for future versions on the stage. I've also made an experimental player counter which shows how many people are playing at the same time as you.
