this is different from my other topic.

Right now i am trying to get the death leaderstat of the players on the leaderboard, but its kind of hard! my brain cant think of a solution!

Script:

local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local KillsLeaderboard = DataStoreService:GetOrderedDataStore("KillsData")
local DeathLeaderboard = DataStoreService:GetOrderedDataStore("DeathsData")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Leaderboard = workspace.LeaderboardFolder.Leaderboard
local Frame = Leaderboard.LeaderboardPart.LeaderboardGui.Holder
local LeaderboardFrame = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("LeaderboardList")

local function UpdateLeaderboard()
	local Success,ErrorMessage = pcall(function()
		local KillsData = KillsLeaderboard:GetSortedAsync(false, 25)
		local DeathsData = DeathLeaderboard:GetSortedAsync(false, math.huge) -- ???? (bit i am stuck on right now!)
		local Page = KillsData:GetCurrentPage()
		local DeathsPage = DeathsData:GetCurrentPage()
		for Rank, data in ipairs(Page) do
			print(data.key)
			local Username = Players:GetNameFromUserIdAsync(tonumber(data.key))
			local Name = Username
			local Kills = data.value
			local IsOnLeaderboard = false
			for i,v in pairs(Frame:GetChildren()) do
				if v:IsA("Frame") and v.Player.Name == Name then
					IsOnLeaderboard = true
					break
				end
			end
			
		if Kills and IsOnLeaderboard == false then
				local NewFrame = LeaderboardFrame:Clone()
				NewFrame.Player.Text = Name
				NewFrame.Kills.Text = Kills
				NewFrame.Rank.Text = "#"..Rank
				NewFrame.Rank.Place.Disabled = false
				NewFrame.Parent = Frame
				for _,DeathData in ipairs(DeathsPage) do
					if DeathData.key == data.key then
						NewFrame.Deaths.Text = DeathData.value
					else
						NewFrame.Deaths.Text = "nil"
					end
				end
			end
		end
		
	end)
	if not Success then
		warn(ErrorMessage)
	end
end

Obviously getting the sorted async with math.huge is going to make an error, but replacing it with a reasonable number (like 100) would actually make this script work! but since there are obviously more people who have more deaths than me it wouldn’t show up on the list, since it gets the most deaths that a player has gotten!

I dont know how i didnt think of this :grimacing:

local function UpdateLeaderboard()
	local Success,ErrorMessage = pcall(function()
		local KillsData = KillsLeaderboard:GetSortedAsync(false, 25)
		local Page = KillsData:GetCurrentPage()
		for Rank, data in ipairs(Page) do
			print(data.key)
			local Username = Players:GetNameFromUserIdAsync(tonumber(data.key))
			local Name = Username
			local Kills = data.value
			local IsOnLeaderboard = false
			for i,v in pairs(Frame:GetChildren()) do
				if v:IsA("Frame") and v.Player.Name == Name then
					IsOnLeaderboard = true
					break
				end
			end
			
			if Kills and IsOnLeaderboard == false then
				local NewFrame = LeaderboardFrame:Clone()
				NewFrame.Player.Text = Name
				NewFrame.Kills.Text = Kills
				NewFrame.Rank.Text = "#"..Rank
				NewFrame.Rank.Place.Disabled = false
				NewFrame.Parent = Frame
				local Content,IsReady = Players:GetUserThumbnailAsync(tonumber(data.key),Enum.ThumbnailType.HeadShot,Enum.ThumbnailSize.Size150x150)
				NewFrame.PlayerIcon.Image = Content
				local DeathsNumber = DeathLeaderboard:GetAsync(tonumber(data.key)) --Bruh
				NewFrame.Deaths.Text = DeathsNumber
			end
		end
		
	end)
	if not Success then
		warn(ErrorMessage)
	end
end

(the player icon thumbnail has been added for aesthetics only does not contribute to this topic)
