Gamecenter in Gamesalad

Games4life

Hi GS Community,

I am having quite a bit of trouble of installing Game Center into my game. I recently viewed tshirtbooth's tutorial, but his lesson is a bit outdated (4 years old). He touches on a login in button and stuff like that which just confuses me. All I want is when I click the leaderboard button to bring me to the Game Center leaderboard button.

Thanks everyone!

Well your missing the point about logging in first....here is why....if you just go to leaderboards your latest score may not post. You SHOULD always have a login function first before being able to go to leaderboards....here is a sequence that has always worked for me...

1. On the very fist scene....force a login to GC bu placing the login behavior on top. You can maybe put a timer of .5 then login just the same....

2. In your game somehow place a post score after a certain function happens...like after spin is complete...or checkpoint reached....whatever.

3. After game over place a leaderboard button to take them to GC

Doing this allows the player to first login....then scores post...and then to check their status/ranking.

You can have a leaderboard button on the fist scene just make sure the login somehow takes place first and also place a load and post score behavior in there as well along...and AFTER login.
