The Leaderboards feature in LootLocker allows you to rank player scores or other data points, making it versatile for tracking everything from player achievements to user-generated content, teams, and more. Metadata can be stored alongside each score, giving your game the flexibility to include contextual information that enhances the ranking experience.
Leaderboard Types
Leaderboards operate in two main modes:
- Player Type: Each score is directly tied to a player, enabling traditional player rankings.
- Generic Type: Scores can be linked to custom keys defined by the game, allowing you to rank items beyond individual players, such as UGC, teams, or any other entities you choose.
