Top 5 leaderboard/score issues

[Swiftmend]

Hi all, I'm having some issues getting my top 5 score board to work.. it's done in AS3 and is saved using a shardObject - the loading/saving aspect works 100%, but the actual scores are getting confused and overwriting each other, EG if you get the top score, it replaces both the 1. and 2. place... here's my code - gameScore is working fine, I get the score from my game when it's game over, etc


Anyone see an issue with my logic which is why it's overwriting 2 places instead of moving the data down into each place under it? I have a feeling i'm overlooking something very simple!!!

function updateleaderboard():void {
    if (gamescore >= top1) {
        top5 = top4;
        top4 = top3;
        top3 = top2;
        top2 = top1
        top1 = gamescore;
        
    }
    else if (gamescore >= top2) {
        top5 = top4;
        top4 = top3;
        top3 = top2;
        top2 = gamescore;
    }
    else if (gamescore >= top3) {
        top5 = top4;
        top4 = top3;
        top3 = gamescore;
    }
    else if (gamescore >= top4) {
        top5 = top4;
        top4 = gamescore;
    }
    else if (gamescore >= top5) {
        top5 = gamescore;
    }

    scoremenu.scoretop1.text = '' + top1;
    scoremenu.scoretop2.text = '' + top2;
    scoremenu.scoretop3.text = '' + top3;
    scoremenu.scoretop4.text = '' + top4;
    scoremenu.scoretop5.text = '' + top5;
    savegame();
}

I want it to replace score 2 with score 1 before it replaces it with the current top score, etc to make the board seem more dynamic. (EG if you get top 1 position, all scores move down a rank)

Hi, try this code

var top:Array = ["1000","900","800","700","600"];
var gamescore = 850;

var runcode:Boolean;
runcode = true;

for(var i=0;i<=top.length-1;i++) {
	if(gamescore == top[i]) {
		trace("my: "+top[i]);
		runcode=false;
		break;
		}
	}

if(runcode) {
	top[5] = gamescore;
	top.sort(Array.NUMERIC);
	top.reverse();
	trace("my: "+gamescore);
}

for(var i3=0;i3<=4;i3++) {
	trace(top[i3]);
}

Sorry, I could not understand your problem.

Hmm, your code seems fine. only thing i can think of, is that gamescore was equal top1, so it looks like it duplicated. ( as you did >= )
