Hello,
During the past few days I have been searching about to try and find the best way to do an online high score list system. One method I found was to use the Ftp commands but I did not see this as the most efficient way for a few reasons. So basically I'm trying to figure out the best way to do an online high score list system so if anyone knows feel free to post .

Thanks in advance

Have a small app running on your server, then send it a few packets of data. 1 with your name, and 1 with the score. have the server app sort the list (and save it to a file for backup) and return the full table of high scores by return packets using the net commands or darknet or whatever you want to use.

Et Voilà!

Pretty much as mobbius said, few days ago i posted highscore snippet you can look at it, and it can be usefull.It`s working and i think there is no bugs.Sorting is done in it, and you need to do the net packet server thing.

Where there is a will, there is a way.
I often edit my posts, that`s who i am

Take into account if there are many user, you may need a database, or multiple access handling.
