  • I used the transfer to Google sheets tutorial by dop2000 and then there's another tutorial (can't remember by who) that lets you pull data from Google sheets. You can set those text boxes up with a fancy leaderboard design!

  • I swear I feel like such an idiot every time I ask for help. That was so simple, haha. Thank you again for everything, dop2000 !

  • Hey dop2000! I needed to add a new column to my spreadsheet (Accusation), so that it records who the player is accusing rather than giving the player the answer via the original sprite animations. So I set it up so that when a player makes an accusation, a global variable is set to the name of the person being accused. But instead, the data isn't transferring over to the spreadsheet for some reason. I've attached a screenshot of the changes I've made- am I missing something super simple again?

  • Never mind. I can do it with your method. You are BRILLIANT! Thank you!!!!

  • Thanks! Ok so I run that, and it shows all the information is there down at the bottom. So why won't it update the textbox with that information?

  • Here's the final capx one more time. dop2000 if you don't mind, can you give me a more step-by-step instruction of what you were saying? I'd really like this to work but I'm definitely hitting outside the limits of my knowledge.

  • Haha that's getting into way over my head territory. I may just be at a wall I can't get through. I really do appreciate all your time and help, though. You've been so great! Thanks dop2000 !

  • Actually now it's back to not working at all, not even pulling the score. Uggggh!

  • So I changed it up a bit- when I did the below BEFORE adding a second text box that would show the player's name, the global variable worked. But now if I have one box showing the player name and one the score, the score just shows "O". I'm so close to getting it but I'm just missing something!! Thanks again for all your help so far dop2000 !

  • dop2000 - I think the issue I'm still running into is that I'm not going to know what username a player enters in order to put it in the code. I tried with a global variable but it didn't work. Basically it's supposed to be a simplified leaderboard, where after the person finishes, they can see their name and 4-9 other players and what their finishing times were. I think I could do it if I could keep the entire first column blank? But I don't know how to do that using the tutorial you created.

  • Bless you. I've been beating my head on the desk for hours on this one!
