Problem with adding score to leaderboard

Questions & Answers
1

So I have a leaderboard in my game. When a player has finished and their game is over, it should add their score to the leaderboard. If it’s a new highscore, their highscore will be changed and updated to the leaderboard and if it isn’t a new highscore, the players highscore will remain the same until it is beaten. For some reason when adding a player’s name and their highscore, it will only add the name and give the leaderboard entry a score of 0. I have debugged and everything comes up correct so I seem to be referencing everything correctly so I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. Here is the adding to leaderboard code below:

player.coins = player.coins + player.thisGameCoins;
if(scoreManager.newHighscore == true)
{
	player.highscore = finalScore;					
}

highscoresManager.AddNewHighscore(menu.userName, player.highscore);
gameManager.SavePlayerData();

The weird thing is, even if I replace the player.highscore with a hardcoded integer like this:

highscoresManager.AddNewHighscore(menu.userName, 10);

it will work perfectly and add the value of that integer to the leaderboard so I do not know what I am doing wrong, any help would be appreciated :slight_smile:

Hard to see from what there is to see, the error is probably with the creation of theplayer.highscore or finalSore variable if we can see that please. Have you tried logging it to the console Debug.Log(finalScore); and player.highscore to make sure it has a value and its type int/float etc
