BaaS - ScoreBoard Service - PVP Style Scoreboard / Game Question

Question

We're trying to implement PVP leaderboard functionality using the current scoreboard service. We'd like to ask if it's possible to do the following PVP task/s:

1) GetNUsersWithScoreRangeExceptPlayer

the closest available API call was getUsersWithScoreRange(), but we can't set the max number of results, and it would be nice to pass a list of usernames to exclude in the search. Our purpose here is to get a list of opponent users with scores near to a player's score, but which weren't in the player's previous opponent list, for matchmaking purposes.

thanks for the feedback

Answer 1

Hello Jonathan,

You can fetch the list of rankers in the scoreboard using GetTopNRankersByGroup method. It will help you to find the scores based on your requirement. But if you want to match the list of users with previous list then you need to manage it by your own using Storage service. 

To achieve this you can save previous records & sort the result based on your requirement. Please have a look at the below links & let me know if it helps:

• Saving Information in Storage service
• Fetching the data Using query interface
