High score not working?

"BlockDodge" on forge.
Can somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong in highscores? In the behavior score, I submit when the player dies.
In the highscores editor, I created "115" with maximum being what's displayed.
In the behavior "sb", I'm trying to check through the top 5 players, and their scores.

What I'm trying to do is submit a score when the player dies, and then in the death screen, trace the top 5 in console. What's being done wrong?

<Stevetheipad>: what's the "move pen to" block?
<Blob>: irock you are wrong

The console says the stat 115 does not exist.

Weird. I'll check that.

What does it mean with the username = katana, username = derek etc?

EDIT: checked, and I have a high score called "115" in the game details.

I'm not sure what it is doing...  :(

I'm getting a similar bogus response in a game I'm testing right now. It's also giving me a 403: Bad Credentials.

Edit: I think I'm using the wrong version of the engine, so ignore this.

I don't think I'll be able to inspect this tonight because of massive computer problems (none of my programs launch, including Flash - only already opened ones work), but I'll say that I'm baffled that over this breaking as I haven't checked in changes to it since it was released.

I do recall playing a game quite recently where scores did work, though.

I encourage anyone with dev access to investigate this for me. The first thing I'd check is that the username and password of the user that are passed to the server (Script.as) are valid. They are appearing on the page, so that's doing its job.

katana, make sure you're using the latest patched version of SW.

Actually, the problem is not SW, but making sure you got the latest engine.swc. In any case, download the new ZIP I put up last night off the main site, and you should be good to go.

Oh, thanks. Btw, how do you reset a high score?

EDIT: also, how do I get a score from a player that's not the first, for example first 5 players?

How would I get the top 5 scores? "Get the [] best entries for score [] and then for each" block just traces something in console. Here's what I'm doing (attachment):

Add a block like:
print( [get score was successful] )
To see if it works. The logic makes sense. It should work.
