Leaderboard System
With the upcoming content update we will add massive improvements and new features to the leaderboard system.
Death Indicator
Whenever the personal best run of a player ends it will be marked by a death indicator. The death indicator will be removed again whenever this player has another run with a higher scoring than before. For the race event this will make it easier to see if the player is still alive taking a break or got defeated and is already on the next run.
Twitch Integration
Twitch Streamers will be able to enter their Twitch Username to receive a Streamer icon in the leaderboard. By pressing the twitch icon players can directly jump to your twitch channel to follow your progress.
For each streamer leaderboard entry it will be automatically checked if they are currently live streaming and receive an online icon in front of the twitch icon. Note that the online icon will only be displayed when the game Striving for Light is streamed or if Striving for Light is included in your Stream Title. So make sure to have these settings right.
By hovering over the leaderboard entry players will be able to see further details of the current livestream like the stream title, the stream language and viewer count as well as the twitch name/ twitch link. To join the live stream simply click on the twitch icon and you will be taken to their twitch channel directly.
