How to find the player with the highest score, the second highest score, and so on?
How to find the player with the highest score, the second highest score, and so on? I tried this random thing, but it obviously does not work.
for _, player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
player.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Frame.Visible = true
local first = math.max(player.leaderstats.Score.Value)
local second = math.min(player.leaderstats.Score.Value)
player.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Frame.First.Text = first
player.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Frame.Second.Text = second
end
Thanks!

The easiest way would be to sort the players by score using table.sort.
function higherScoreThan(playerA, playerB)
return playerA.leaderstats.Score.Value > playerB.leaderstats.Score.Value
end
-- get the list of all the players playing the game that have a Score
local players = {}
for _, player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
if player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats") and player.leaderstats:FindFirstChild("Score") then
table.insert(players, player)
end
end
table.sort(players, higherScoreThan)
-- display the names
if players[1] then
FirstPlace.Text = players[1].Name
if players[2] then
SecondPlayer.Text = players[2].Name
else
SecondPlayer.Text = "only one person was playing :("
end
else
FirstPlace.Text = "no one was playing :("
end

Use Dummiez Leader Board Block. Here is the link; https://www.roblox.com/library/157979393/High-Score-Board
You can easily configure it to a gui.
