Hey, I seem to remember a while back seeing some hi-score tutorials that don't use the hi-score object. I'm starting to get to the stage in my game where the actual game portion is finished, and now I'm rounding out all the non-game screens. I had planned on using the standard hi-score object, but it's not going to work the way I need it to. (Mainly I need it to be visible on top of an active object.) I've also considered creating an online hi score, but that's just a thought. I'd really like to mainly just get a standard one going.
Does anybody know of a tutorial, or have any examples already done?
Thanks!

Why not just use an array?
Make a loop that checks if the new score is higher than the saved scores, starting by the last one.

Hey thanks for the suggestion. I began messing around with that but ended up just using some strings that can be viewed in front of actives. I didn't realize I could set those to the specific score entry. Looks like I'll be set for now!

Perhaps jou could use layers, and set the high-score object in the top-most layer?

I bet that'd work too. I didn't even think of that. Oh well. By using the string and counters, I can precicely space each item where I need it, rather than having it in a set list.
