The whole leaderboard, and the people around you
Until today the leaderboard showed the top 20 and nothing else. If you were signed in and ranked lower, you got one line under the table: three dots, then "You #47" and your score. That told you where you stood. It didn't tell you who was standing next to you, and you couldn't see anyone else past 20th place at all. Right now more than a hundred pilots have XP, so most of the people playing were looking at a list they weren't on.
Who you're chasing
If you're below the top 20, the line under the table now shows a short slice of the board around you: up to three pilots above you and three below. These are full rows with the avatar, career crest, prestige stars, title and medals, exactly like the rows at the top. Your own row is highlighted. The pilot one place above you is the one to catch this week, and now you can see their name and how far ahead they are.
Show more
Under the top 20 there's a Show more button. Each click loads the next 50 places, and you can keep going to the last pilot on the board. When the loaded rows reach your slice, the gap closes and the table reads as one list. This works on every board: career, this week, prestige, recruiters, and each season metric (season XP, new ships, new aircraft, races, recruiters). The game's own leaderboard window has the same button.
Ties are now settled the same way everywhere
Two pilots with exactly the same score used to share a place in the "your position" count, while the table put them in whatever order the database returned. With a full board that mismatch would show up, so ties now break by a fixed rule and every count uses it. On the all-time boards the earlier account goes first. On season boards it's the rule the season payout already used: the metric, then season XP, then who joined the season first. The place you see on the live board during a season is the place the prizes are paid by when it closes.
If you shared a place with someone yesterday, one of you may now sit one place lower. Nobody's score changed. Banned accounts stay off every board, as before.
