Google leaderboards, up to a maximum of 70?


I see in the doc that the limit for the number of leaderboards on Google Play Services is 70. However, I am able to create more than 70 leaderboards and they are all working when I test my app. Is this limit still up to date? Does this mean that if I publish my game some of the leaderboards will be deactivated or something?



Thank you in advance if you know the answer. I just want to make sure of what I can expect for when I publish my game.



Answer



Since the documentation says the limit is 70, you should rely on the limit being 70. That's about as official as you can get, in the general case.


To do otherwise is to rely on undocumented behavior that may only work during development or local testing -- such things are typical, for example you may be able to create more than 70 for testing purposes or over the lifetime of your application but can only have 70 active on the live services at a time. This facilitates debugging or retiring older leaderboards in favor of newer ones, et cetera.


Trying to have more will likely result in the extras being disabled, or possibly prevent your app from being available until the issue is corrected.
