Hi guys, I'm looking in to using a custom hi-score system as I want custom test and not the typical fonts, I could figure out that part myself but I just can't seem to figure out the hi-score object as I can only use the one hi-score table. I could never get multiple hi-score tables working even though you can select the table you want.
If someone could give me a idea where to find a example or tutorial on getting more than one table to work, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks
Leighton

Use an array to store the entries and sort them using any sorting algorithm.

I used bubble sort. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bubble_sort
Then for a "non typical" font, you need to use text blitting. There are a few extensions available but they are either not compatible with HWA or the various runtimes.
I recently wrote a tutorial teaching users how to text blit simply with active objects, it might be helpful for you.

Yeah, I was about to suggest bubble sort. I did a really quick test once and it works really well for sorting a simple list of numbers.
