I want to use the Scoreboard to track the number of player eliminations (kills) and knockouts (deaths) during a game round. I want those values to reset when the next round starts.
I would also like to use the Leaderboard to track player eliminations across multiple game rounds. So the total sum of all eliminations that player has obtained while playing.
I’m using custom weapons I’ve put together and the built in Rec Room health system (via the Game Rules Chip.) Any insights would be greatly appreciated as this is the last feature I need working before I begin broader play testing.
Hi @swivelskittle, welcome to the Creator Forum!
It sounds like you have two objectives: 1) use scoreboard to track kills and deaths, but it resets each round, and 2) track eliminations the player has achieved in their lifetime.

For this one, I think you’ll have to create your own “scoreboard” using Text. Since you have custom weapons, you probably have some way to identify when the player is killed and deaths.

Using the Rec Room leaderboard will work for this. There are some chips that you can use:
- Leaderboard Get Player Stat
- Leaderboard Set Local Player Stat
The Rec Room leaderboard has different “stats”, so that you can track multiple things. There are currently 7 stats available. So you can track things like Total Kills, Total Eliminations, Total Rounds Played, Time in Game, etc.
I hope this helped you. Good luck!
