Help with HighScores

GingerBGames

Hello GSer's,

I was wondering if someone can help fix a problem for me on my current project. I'm using the GS HighScore 1 template. I've had some advice to fix something in my game and i've done that, but I cannot for anything get this thing to work. I was just wondering if someone had some free time if they wouldn't mind taking a look for me please?

I didn't see the template, and I bet my way is rude as a punch on the stomach.

But I did it this way:
- Load keys "highscore1" etc. to attributes
- Compare user's points to all highscores and determine his position (in a attribute called position).
- shift lower highscores attributes depending on position
- change new highscore attribute with current points
- save all the attributes

This is one the first things I tried solving when I started with GS. I posted a demo that uses min/max to determine the correct order for up to 3 high scores, but it could easily be configured to support more than 3.

I'll try both of your ways, I hope this works. I really need to have this in my game, i've got Easy, Medium, and Hard to choose from in my game, so it's something nice to have in there.

That didn't seem to fix this either. If anyone has any ideas I would love to hear some other ideas, thank you to both of you for replying and I appreciate your taking the time to try and help.

What exactly did you do?

I've decided i'm only going to do 1 score for each instead. Oh my gosh, my head hurts from trying to figure this out. Thank you all though. I will figure this out in the future though.
