How It Works

When you use a leaderboard, the system iterates through each entry one by one. During this iteration, $getLeaderboardPosition exposes the current rank (1 for the first, 2 for the second, etc.).

The returned value corresponds to the internal variable ((leaderboard.position)) which is resolved at runtime by the dedicated leaderboard action.

Use Cases

Typically, you use $getLeaderboardPosition with $textSplit to split the leaderboard result line by line, then display the positions:

• Display a formatted ranking with ranks
• Compare the current user’s position with others
• Build custom messages based on rank (podium, top 10, etc.)

Important

• $getLeaderboardPosition returns nothing outside the context of an active leaderboard.
• The function takes no parameters.
• It is typically paired with $getLeaderboardValue which gives the value associated with that position.
• The leaderboard itself is generated by a dedicated action at code execution time.

See Also

• $getLeaderboardValue — Get the value associated with the current position
• $globalUserLeaderboard — Global user leaderboard
• $serverLeaderboard — Server-level leaderboard
• $userLeaderboard — Personal leaderboard
• $textSplit — Split the result of a leaderboard
