How would I get the exact amount of a badges a player has with httpservice?
Hello, I'm trying to make a badge counter like the one in this (http://www.roblox.com/games/5166670285) game.
But when I use it, it gets something like 32,500 instead of 32,452. If anybody could help it would be very much appreciated
heres my code
01 | local httpservice = game:GetService("HttpService") |
02 |
03 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(p) |
04 | local url = "https://badges.rprxy.xyz/v1/users/"..p.UserId.."/badges?limit=100&sortOrder=Asc" |
05 | while true do |
06 |
07 | local request = httpservice:JSONDecode(httpservice:GetAsync(url)) |
08 | local cursor = request.nextPageCursor |
09 | if cursor == "null" then |
10 | break |
11 | else |
12 | url = "https://badges.rprxy.xyz/v1/users/"..p.UserId.."/badges?limit=100&sortOrder=Asc&cursor="..cursor |
13 | p.leaderstats.Badges.Value += 100 |
14 | end |
15 |
16 | end |
17 | end) |

What method are you using to count the badges. The API doesn’t appear to return a number of badges. Benbebop 1049 — 4y

the api returns a list of badges and a next page cursor. the next page cursor makes a 2nd list of 100 badge that the user has been awarded. So i am just counting 100 per a request Killerbot712 47 — 4y

But the user probably doesnt have a badge count in the multiples of 100. So i am trying to get how many badges there is on the final list Killerbot712 47 — 4y

Put all the values inside “data” into a table and use table.len or # to count the number of entries. Benbebop 1049 — 4y

That's what happened to me quite a bit, as you see you are using += 100 and when it reaches the last page it won't add the value, it will add 100...
Basically you just need to add the total inside the page...
iirc, p.leaderstats.Badges.Value += #request.body or #request?
