Leaderboards for songs
So just to get this right, if i play a song on lets say spotify, will there be a global leaderboard for each song? (And for each ship?)

Yes, there is a leaderboard for each song.

When I add support for more player ships, I'm thinking it will be best to have 2 leaderboards per song, one for the standard ship, and one for all the others.

Otherwise there will just be to many unique leaderboards.

Sounds good thx.

Also another Question: If i play a song on Spotify, will the generated enemies be Always the same (like in mp3 Songs in BH1)? And will they be the same for every other Player?

I am asking bc if someone gets other or more enemies in a song, they will score a lot higher then others simply by the fact they got better rng.

(Was 3rd place with golden ship in 2 Kategories in BH1, so i am very interrested in a fair Competition for Songs ^^)

Yes, each song should play the same for each player regardless of the source.
With 'Open Mic' it took a bit of extra engineering, but it all seems to work fine.

Out of interest will the score counting stop when the song normally ends?
As an example open mic finds a song that's 3 minutes normally long but someone used a youtube link that has an outro with extra music. So it's 3 minutes and 30 seconds long.

The Open Mic system will ID the track and be given its length, so yes, the game will automatically end at the right time.

It will also end if there's 2/3 seconds of silence.

Hi there, really enjoying the game so far. Maybe im blind or dense, but how do i find the per song leaderboards? Ive been told after a run that im #1 on several but cant seem to find my scores?

If you’re using open mic you can’t at the moment. It’s something on my list to do. Sorry about that.
