Ok I have a fully working score system but I need it to overwrite if you get a high score than our previuosly set highscore, but also not oerwrite if you don't. Think you could help me out?

var/deletescores = list("Score"="")// Delete the previous score field.
world.SetScores(src.key, list2params(deletescores))// Delete the previous score field.


Then right under that just add the new scores.

var/addscore = list("Score"=src.Score)
world.SetScores(src.key, list2params(addscore))


PS: Probably a more code-efficient way out there, but this'll work.

I could delete a score but I want to know how to compare the new score to the old score and thenif the new one is higher overwrite the old one.

P.S. This is greatfisher's other account I forgot to change aftert testing something.

mob/proc


    Scores()
        var/scores = world.GetScores(key,"High Score")
        if(!scores)
            var/highscore = list("High Score"="[src.score]")
            world.SetScores("[src]",list2params(highscore))
        if(scores)
            var/list/params = params2list(scores)
            if(params["Score"])
                var/high_score = text2num(params["Score"])
                if(src.score > high_score)
                    world.SetScores("[src]",list2params(score))


This is what I have and it doesn't work.
