How do you make global lists so you can make a leaderboard? I want to make one for my platformer to see how fast everyone completed it.

(s(w(a(g))))

here is a tutorial http://wiki.scratch.mit.edu/wiki/Global_High_Scores

Hi, I am working on a global engine, and I wasn't sure if the lists are global, because if you have worked with cloud variables your know that you can only use one at a time, and I wan't to use a list and the list needs to be global to work, so if anyone knows if they are or not, it would be nice to get a reply.

It is said they removed them. It was there in one of the versions.
Oh, and you can make a limited global score board. Use Global variables. You will need to convert the letters and stuff to numbers.

Oh, well maybe they'll bring it back in 4.0 (but thats in 4 years ), that's also bad because I was working on an MMO engine, that involved global lists .

when green flag clicked
repeat until <4.0>
move (1) steps
wait (4) years
end

lets hope they do cause i need it

I need one for a big game to save progress

when green flag clicked
wait (Global lists added) secs

Come on already

Hi guys, please don't post on old topics, that is called necroposting. It's a form of spam.

Also, cloud lists, or global lists, are removed for safety reasons, for instance, with cloud lists, you can create cloud chats, which is heavily banned in Scratch.

1.6 Cloud lists of the Official List of Rejected Suggestion
Cloud variables currently have several restrictions. There can be at most 10 cloud variables per project due to server costs. New Scratchers cannot use cloud variables, for it is easy to misuse them. Cloud variables can only support up to 256 numeric digits to restrict the creation of chat projects; for more information, see #3.1 on this list.

This block would allow you to create lists to be stored on the servers for everyone to see, similar to cloud variables. However, cloud lists would require similar restrictions as listed above, and the issues currently presented with cloud variables would only grow with the addition of cloud lists. You can still use cloud variables to create a list which contains entries everyone can see, but the Scratch Team will not be adding an easy official way to make cloud lists.
