I'm trying to grab all of the highscores from the newgrounds API, I can see in the game page there's at least 2 pages. but the code below just seems to show the first page an infinite number of times, crashing the game. How to I get ALLLLL of the names?
var allScores:Vector.<Score> = new <Score>[];
while (_highScores.scores.length > 0) {
for each(var score:Score in _highScores.scores)
allScores.push(score);
_highScores.nextPage();
}More info: the first page contains 10 scores, there are currently 20 scores up. I tried prevPage too, thinking maybe it starts on the last page, that didn't work
the condition of the while loop depends on the length of an array that you never change, that's why it crashes.

I'm under the assumption that nextPage() changes the value of scores. since there's no other accessors for score data, do I have to call nextPage(), followed by a loadScores()? Does it just send down all of the scores on the first loadScores() call? I guess bigger games would have a hefty initial load if it sent them all down.
Nevermind, this fixed it
_highScores.numResults = uint.MAX_VALUE;
_highScores.addEventListener(APIEvent.SCORES_LOADED, onScoresLoaded);
_highScores.loadScores();I can probably get an infinite number of results if I do the nextPage() before a loadScores() call. but I don't think I have to worry.

name and value pairs, that's not a big deal
The documentation says that scores contains all scores of the last query, so I guess this is wrong?
Do you still use the pages?

not really, I just have to specify the query size.

No, all one single page; I'm pretty sure I would use pages to get a query from like: 20-40

did I mention the last code I posted is called before I check scores?
