# Unity Initialization

{% hint style="info" %}
Legacy worked a bit differently for initialisation ... \
See [Legacy Getting Started](https://kb.heathen.group/old-kb/old-toolkit-for-steamworks/unity/legacy/quick-start-guide) for more info.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
1st and foremost ... if you have SteamManager.cs in your project, remove it.

\
That script should not be used at all; it is not part of Heathen's Toolkit, and it was not meant to be dragged and dropped into a production project in the first place.

## Pure Code

You do NOT require any GameObjects to make Steamworks run. You can simply call the [generated wrapper](https://kb.heathen.group/steam/configuration/unity-configuration#generate-wrapper).

```csharp
SteamTools.Interface.Initialise();
```

### Ready Check

You can check if the interface is ready to use by using the Interface class

```csharp
private void Start()
{
    if (SteamTools.Interface.IsReady)
    {
        // Ready to go
    }
    else
    {
        // Not ready yet, listen for On Ready
        SteamTools.Interface.OnReady += Interface_OnReady;
    }
}

private void Interface_OnReady()
{
    // Ready now
}
```

Or you can use the "When Ready" feature.

```csharp
private void Start()
{
    SteamTools.Interface.WhenReady(Interface_OnReady);
}

private void Interface_OnReady()
{
    // Ready Now
}
```

### Debugging

To enable debugging from code, you can set:

```csharp
SteamTools.Interface.IsDebugging = true;
```

This will cause it to be more verbose about things. In general, you would set this before you initialise, so you can get more verbose initialisation steps as well.

## Code Free

If you need a code-free solution, we provide you with a component script which will initialise the Steamworks SDK for you based on your configured settings.

There are no settings needed; that is all handled by your [configuration](https://kb.heathen.group/steam/configuration/unity-configuration). You do not need to mark this object Do Not Destroy, It exists to do nothing more than call

```csharp
SteamTools.Interface.Initialise();
```
