Depends on what you use to keep track of lives.
Assuming you use custom score you just use leaderboard, custom score. Basically custom score would be the best method for this as its easy to leaderboard, other methods would require that you have a system to transfer your stored lives to something that can be leaderboarded.
well i think it's for multiple people am i right? cause a custom might work depending on what else ur keeping track of. like if u keep score of # of level's one person solved or somthin u'd have to figure out somthin else.
Well he's pretty much said he wanted it to display lives in the upper left corner of the screen.
To do you that you have to use the leaderboard's custom score.
The question is what do you mean you already know how to subtract lives? What are you using to keep track of lives?
With the leaderboard's custom score you can use that to keep track of lives and have them displayed at the same time.
For conditions you're going to want to use the SCORE condition, and for actions you use SET SCORE, and set the points to custom. Those two will allow you to manipulate the scores shown in the leaderboard for each player.
To show the leaderboard you need to use the action LEADERBOARD (POINTS), and then set the points to custom. It also lets you change the label to whatever you want. For this you might want to change the label to Lives Left or something.
If you have a computer and you don't want it to be displayed in the leaderboard, you can use the LEADERBOARD COMPUTER PLAYERS action and set it to disable.
thats all the info your going to get here. because, thats all the info there is!
BUSTED
have fun making your bound ..
