public abstract void submitScore (String leaderboardId, long score, String scoreTag)

Submit a score to a leaderboard for the currently signed-in player. The score is ignored if it is worse (as defined by the leaderboard configuration) than a previously submitted score for the same player.

This form of the API is a fire-and-forget form. Use this if you do not need to be notified of the results of submitting the score, though note that the update may not be sent to the server until the next sync.

The meaning of the score value depends on the formatting of the leaderboard established in the developer console. Leaderboards support the following score formats:

  • Fixed-point: score represents a raw value, and will be formatted based on the number of decimal places configured. A score of 1000 would be formatted as 1000, 100.0, or 10.00 for 0, 1, or 2 decimal places.
  • Time: score represents an elapsed time in milliseconds. The value will be formatted as an appropriate time value.
  • Currency: score represents a value in micro units. For example, in USD, a score of 100 would display as $0.0001, while a score of 1000000 would display as $1.00

For more details, please see Leaderboard Concepts.

Parameters
leaderboardId The leaderboard to submit the score to.
score The raw score value.
scoreTag Optional metadata about this score. The value may contain no more than 64 URI-safe characters as defined by section 2.3 of RFC 3986.

This form of the API will attempt to submit the score to the server immediately within the task, returning a ScoreSubmissionData on success with information about the submission.
