Appformative: Event Tracking what do I do wrong?

BigDave

I seem to miss something here.

Trying to make the event tracking work in my app, testing through the editor.

A simple actor that on touch should send the event to app formative and appear in the chart.
The basics seem to work btw. Its only about the event tracking.

Hi @BigDave,

you probably just forgot to click "Set" after selecting the Event Name in the filter.

With over a billion data sets in the background, we opt for more decided interaction on the webpage, rather than auto trigger selections and put undue stress on the system.

Please contact me by PM or Email if you have questions.

Regards,
Roland

Your data looks as expected from our side.

I do see that the Events you set up are not the same as you transmit from in game, but I guess you are in the process of making changes.

But please PM me, so as not to bother the forum as a whole.

you can have custom events so you decide pretty much what /when you wanna track

BigDave

I track couple of 2-3 inital events to see how much players will come into the main flow

after this each quest finished to get how engaging the app is on the long run

freneticz

Can you send a push notice to all with your app when you want?

How does the leaderboard looks like ? and can i use the same leaderboard for IOS, Amazon & Googleplay ? @Hopscotch

Hi @freneticz

when you request the leaderboards from the server, you get a table of data which you can format and present as you like.

And yes, they work on IOS, Android, MAC, so can be used cross platform, letting players from different platforms compete.

@Hopscotch do you have a good guide to program it in GS, when a new best ..popup a name insert or so.

So when i want to show leaderboards can i show it on a scene in my game?

Hopscotch

@freneticz

Since the leader-board data is in a table, you can use it as you wish:

• a dedicated leader-board scene, or on the game scene
• motivate players e.g. "only 25 more points to be in first place!"
• depending on your game, show the player's high-score progress in relation to other players
• etc.

Regarding a good guide, no. Since it is just a table of names and high-scores, it very much depends on your scene how you want to display the list. There are many templates out there that can help with displaying a list of table content, static or scroll-able.

But if you are really stuck, we are happy to help you on a project basis or refer you to someone.
