#1

I created a cutscene with animations that plays at the end of round, i want to get player’s id which will be the number 1 in leaderboard at the end of round.

I literally dont have an idea how to do that, im bad with values, datas and etc. What methods do i use and when\where should i start?

Dummy that is in cutscene, has a script which grabs id of a player and copies his outfit, i need the id of leader on leaderboard when round ends

You get the first 3 values in the ordered DataStore.

#3

try this:

local highestnumber = 0

for i, v in pairs(workspace.Folder:GetChildren()) do

local number = v.Value

if number > highestnumber then

highestnumber = number

end

end

print(highestnumber)

local highestnumber = 0

for i, v in pairs(workspace.Folder:GetChildren()) do

local number = v.Value

if number > highestnumber then

highestnumber = number

end

end

print(highestnumber)

for i, child in ipairs(workspace.Folder:GetChildren()) do

if child.Value == highestnumber then

print(child)

end

end

just replace the folder:GetChildren() by the player’s kills or whatever you’re trying to meassure.
Then replace the second for loop getchildren by the players kills and there you go

As you can see on the image below, the highest number value and name are printed:

There is also a folder into workspace with the values, each value’s name is equals to the value’s value

table.sort is probably what you’re looking for. Here’s an example:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local function getTopPlayerExample()
    local Values: {Player: Player, Score: NumberValue} = {}
    
    for _, plr in pairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
        table.insert(Values, {
            Player = plr,
            Score= plr:WaitForChild("leaderstats").Points
        })
    end
    
    table.sort(Values, function(a, b)
        return a.Score.Value > b.Score.Value
    end)
    
    return Values[1].Player
end
