How to script with checkpoints and leaderboards?
So I'm new to creating roblox games, i just started. I've been creating an obby, but I don't know 3 things that are pretty important to me: How to get a leaderboard with the stage number, how to get stages to save when you leave, and how to make it so when you go onto a past checkpoint it doesnt save it. I've been looking at other posts, but I can't seem to understand where to put the script, and they're a bit old. If somebody could help me that would be very apreciated.

You should show the script that you attempted to make first next time so we can help and show you how to fix the errors.
most of your scripts could go inside serverscriptservice.
for datastores, you could read this https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/articles/Data-store
to make 'Stages' you make leaderstats https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/articles/Leaderboards
These scripts are not finished (wont work), they only give an idea of how you could make it
to move them to the spawn, you could do somethin like this
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character) -- runs every time player respawns for i,v in pairs(game.Workspace.Stages:GetChildren()) do -- put stages in a folder or something in workspace if v.Name == player.leaderstats.Stage.Value then -- finds stage that player is on character:MoveTo(v.Position) -- move player to checkpoint end end end)
how you could check if stage is 1 ahead, not more or less.
local stage = ????? if stage = player.leaderstats.Stage.Value + 1
