How to add score and high score to game over screen

TheTiger

Hi I have added a score counter to the main game, but I wanted to know how to add the score and high score to the game over screen.

Game attributes are available on any scene so make sure your score and high score attributes are game attributes, not scene or actor attributes. There are many tutorials for this sort of thing so start by Googling gamesalad high score.

I tried to search for it but I can't really find anything. i tried in the high score actor.
Display text- game.score

Rule-
If game.score > game.high score
Change attribute game.highscore to game.score
Save attribute - game.highscore as high score

Where would I need to put the load attribute, because I only want the high score to come on the game over screen and what would I put in the load attribute?

Thanks.

This is the first result when Googling gamesalad high score:

Clicking on the Videos tab shows 62,800 results.

The Load Attribute behavior usually would be on an initial title/menu screen and not inside of a rule.

I am having some trouble with keeping my HIGHSCORE accurate. It loads and displays and saves it in the game but it is sometimes, but not always, inaccurate?! Just doesn't make sense why sometimes it is right and sometimes it is wrong. Can anybody please help?

Thanks!!

Hey,
I would say...use tables for your higscore/scores/stars what you want.
It's the better and when you have a bigger project the easy/clean way.
