[Full Release] Add Persistent Friends and Global Leaderboards Easily

The leaderboard UI definitely needs improvements. It seems that the UI in provided image belongs to a not-yet-released version, which is a little bit different than what the actual one looks like today.

  • Tabs shouldn’t contain so much Y space.
  • Padding should be improved. The icon placement looks weird.
  • The current leaderboard UI has the “x” on the left, it should be placed on the right side instead, like in the provided image.
  • The leaderboard should be made more modular, just like TextChatService. The native leaderboard feels really difficult to take control of.

Is there a way to query this information? I want to display this data in my own custom leaderboard.

Nice to see this change, but slightly disappointing on who you chose to partner with to test it out.

Happy to see this, global leaderboards sucked to implement
Would be nice if we could change the size, width, colors and font like we can with the chat window

probably not, the roblox engineers who do the coregui aren’t the best at writing optimised code

It seems like the new leaderboard update decimals aren’t handled properly.

It looks like they’re going ahead with the updated escape menu design :eyes:

Please tell me there is at least some form of entry level customization to it, like Text Chat. This already feels like a horizontal size increase, so at least let us control vertical size.

Please make an game-creator controlled option for global leaderboards to be viewable on the website like playerpoints used to be

I miss this feature so much. It could’ve been even better with a few changes

It’s good update but player’s name is cutting down is so short (only affect with Global tab)


And its buggy with my game (game link : Easy Obby :) | Play on Roblox)

I feel like there should be a way to hide yourself from the Friends and Global leaderboards.

holy a massively good update for once, right after the doomscrolling policy, now let’s hope roblox doesn’t hit us with another situation like the 2d clothing killer

This is cool and a great addition to Roblox

Decimals are correctly displayed, it’s just that they are formatted in different way. Hopefully there will be some customization improvements to leaderboard, or probably this leaderboard could be open-sourced…

This is awesome. We would love a way to be able to have multiple live leaderboards. Such as, so we can activate/trigger them when the player is in different worlds/areas in the game. Like we would have one for our normal world, and a different one for our event world. Activated by some code in the game.

This was a really great feature for sparking a competitive spirit among players or even groups; I wonder why it was removed.

You should allow us to change the colors and fonts of the leaderboard like we can do with the chat.

Finally, what we were asking for years is finally here. That is a miracle.
