Okay, in this new game i'm making. There is a highscore list. Once you catch the bad guy, depending on how long it takes you, you get a different score. So i play the game and catch the bad guy. Lets pretend that my score is 25. When i go to the highscore page, it asks me my name. I type in my name. Then its asks me for my name again. Meaning that my score and name appear two times on the high score list.

Note that there are not two players, so the second score isn't reffering to the second player.
Any help what-so-ever would be muchly appreciated.
Thanks,
Gandhi (David Gahan)

Yeah...

Well I think your problem is your telling the highscore to ask for the players name.

Im pretty sure once a frame initializes it does this automatically. Unfortunetely, it shouldn't. Don't ask for the name, and I think it should work.

I would like to suggest you make your own highscore. It's somewhat tricky, but you could do more with it...

I know if I was going to make an online game with a highscore, I would allow the top 3 to post a link... to whatever they wanted. That would be ultra cool.

I haven't used the highscore object much, but I was under the impression that you use the score object in all of the frames and then you have the highscore object in another frame. It should then automatically ask you for your name if you get a highscore.

You only need a high score tablet in the frame you want to record the highscore.
If the level starts and player 1-4 has a score higher than 0, then
the tablet will ask for all players names with a score higher than 0.

Got all that? I sure didn't.
