Does Social.LoadScores report ALL scores on GameCenter?

Question

I have this piece of code tied to Apple's GameCenter:

 Social.LoadScores("HighScore", scores => {
             if (scores.Length > 0) {
                 Debug.Log("HIGHSCORE: " + int.Parse(scores[0].formattedValue));
             }
         });

I'm wondering why scores[] is a list of values. I can only test with one user so would scores[] be a list of ALL scores on GameCenter? I only need the localUser score!

To retrieve local player score, you can get the scores from a specific leaderboard doing something like this:

     ILeaderboard leaderboard = Social.CreateLeaderboard();
     leaderboard.id = "HighScore";
     leaderboard.LoadScores(success =>
     {
         if (!success)
         {
             // Handle fail case: this is when your leaderboard doesn't load scores successfully
         }
         else
         {
             // you can retrieve the score of local user here
             long localUserScore = leaderboard.localUserScore.value;
         }
     });

To answer you question: Social.LoadScores does get a list of values into scores[], and I'm just finding out right now that it seems to only load top 10 scores (I literally just made multiple apple IDs to test).

I know this answer is late, but hopefully it can help whoever that stumbles across this post in the future.

This appears to still be correct as of 10/28/2020. I'm not sure why you are limited, as in Xcode Game Center allowed you to call more scores (I believe it was 100).

This worked for me, although I added:

         leaderboard.timeScope = TimeScope.AllTime;

Before leaderboard.LoadScores to get all time. I was receiving 0 results when I didn't set that, so I'm assu$$anonymous$$g it was defaulting to something else (like today maybe?)
