Introduction

using StatsClient = HeathenEngineering.SteamworksIntegration.API.StatsAndAchievements.Client;

public static class StatsAndAchievements.Client

All features available to 1 are present in the other with some minor exceptions. The only notable difference is that Server related calls required you to provide the CSteamID of the user to be adjusted and will only work when that user is authenticated to the Steam Game Server that calls the method.

What can it do?

Set and reset Steam Stats and Achievements. Most of the features of the StatsAndAchievments interface can be accessed through its related objects.

Events

EventUserStatsReceived

Called when the latest stats and achievements for a specific user (including the local user) have been received from the server.

You would add a listener on this event such as:

Assuming a handler in the form of

private void HandleEvent(UserStatsReceived_t arg0)
{
}

Then you would register the event such as:

API.StatsAndAchievement.Client.EventUserStatsReceived.AddListener(HandleEvent);

When you no longer need this handler you should remove it for example when the behaviour using it is destroyed

void OnDestroy()
{
    API.StatsAndAchievement.Client.EventUserStatsReceived.RemoveListener(HandleEvent);
}

EventUserStatsUnloaded

Callback indicating that a user's stats have been unloaded.

Assuming a handler in the form of

private void HandleEvent(UserStatsUnloaded_t arg0)
{
}

Then you would register the event such as:

API.StatsAndAchievement.Client.EventUserStatsUnloaded.AddListener(HandleEvent);

When you no longer need this handler you should remove it for example when the behaviour using it is destroyed

void OnDestroy()
{
    API.StatsAndAchievement.Client.EventUserStatsUnloaded.RemoveListener(HandleEvent);
}

EventUserStatsStored

Callback indicating that a user's stats have been stored.

Assuming a handler in the form of

private void HandleEvent(UserStatsStored_t arg0)
{
}

Then you would register the event such as:

API.StatsAndAchievement.Client.EventUserStatsStored.AddListener(HandleEvent);

When you no longer need this handler you should remove it for example when the behaviour using it is destroyed

void OnDestroy()
{
    API.StatsAndAchievement.Client.EventUserStatsStored.RemoveListener(HandleEvent);
}

EventUserAchievementStored

Callback indicating that a user's achievements have been stored.

Assuming a handler in the form of

private void HandleEvent(UserAchievementStored_t arg0)
{
}

Then you would register the event such as:

API.StatsAndAchievement.Client.EventUserAchievementStored.AddListener(HandleEvent);

When you no longer need this handler you should remove it for example when the behaviour using it is destroyed

void OnDestroy()
{
    API.StatsAndAchievement.Client.EventUserAchievementStored.RemoveListener(HandleEvent);
}

Gets a collection of the "most achieved achievements" this is a collection sorted by the statistically most achieved achievements for the game globally. The first entry will be the most achieved achievement globally with the last entry being the least.

The callback for this should take the following form

void Callback(EResult result, (AchievementObject achievement, float percentage)[] data, bool IOError)
{
    if(result = EResult.k_EResultOK)
    {
        foreach(var entry in data)

                                out bool achieved)

Gets the info on the next most achieved achievement for the game.

You must have called RequestGlobalAchievementPercentages and it needs to return successfully via its callback prior to calling this.

previousIndex Iterator returned from the previous call to this method or from GetMostAchievedAchievementInfo
achievementApiName will be populated with the achievement name
percent will be populated with the percentage of people that have achieved this
achieved true if the current user has this achievement unlocked

GetNumAchievements

public static uint GetNumAchievements()

The callback would take the form of

void Callback(NumberOfCurrentPlayers_t result, bool IOError)
{
    //DO WORK
}

GetStat

public static bool GetStat(string statApiName, out int data)

public static bool GetStat(string statApiName, out float data)

public static bool GetStat(CSteamID userId, string statApiName, out int data)

public static bool GetStat(CSteamID userId, string statApiName, out float data)

                                uint maxProgress)

Shows the user a pop-up notification with the current progress of an achievement.

Calling this function will NOT set the progress or unlock the achievement, the game must do that manually by calling SetStat!

RequestCurrentStats

public static bool RequestCurrentStats()

Asynchronously request the user's current stats and achievements from the server.

You must always call this first to get the initial status of stats and achievements. Only after the resulting callback comes back can you start calling the rest of the stats and achievement functions for the current user.

When we initialize the Steam API for you via our Steamworks Behaviour will will call this for you. You shouldn't ever need to call this your self.

RequestGlobalAchievementPercentages

public static void RequestGlobalAchievementPercentages(Action<GlobalAchievementPercentagesReady_t, bool> callback)

Asynchronously fetch the data for the percentage of players who have received each achievement for the current game globally.

void Callback(GlobalAchievementPercentageReady_t result, bool IOError)
{
    //DO WORK
}

RequestGlobalStats

public static void RequestGlobalStats(int historyDays, 
                                Action<GlobalStatsReceived_t, bool> callback)

Asynchronously fetches global stats data, which is available for stats marked as "aggregated" in the App Admin panel of the Steamworks website.

The callback for this method should take the form

void Callback(GlobgalStatsReceived_t results, bool IOError)
{
    //DO WORK
}

RequestUserStats

public static void RequestUserStats(CSteamID userId, 
                                Action<UserStatsReceived_t, bool> callback)

Asynchronously downloads stats and achievements for the specified user from the server.

To keep from using too much memory, an least recently used cache (LRU) is maintained and other user's stats will occasionally be unloaded. When this happens a UserStatsUnloaded_t callback is sent. After receiving this callback the user's stats will be unavailable until this function is called again.

The callback for this method should take the form

void Callback(UserStatsReceived_t results, bool IOError)
{
    //DO WORK
}

ResetAllStats

public static bool ResetAllStats(bool achievementsToo)

Resets all stats, if you pass true in on the achievementToo parameter then it will also reset all achievements.

SetAchievement

public static bool SetAchievement(string achievementApiName)

Unlocks the achievement identified

SetStat

public static bool SetStat(string statApiName, int data)

public static bool SetStat(string statApiName, float data)

Sets / updates the value of a given stat for the current user.

statApiName The API Name of the stat. Must not be longer than k_cchStatNameMax.
data The new value of the stat. This must be an absolute value. it will not increment or decrement for you!

StoreStats

public static bool StoreStats()

Send the changed stats and achievements data to the server for permanent storage.

If this fails then nothing is sent to the server. It's advisable to keep trying until the call is successful. This call can be rate limited. Call frequency should be on the order of minutes, rather than seconds. You should only be calling this during major state changes such as the end of a round, the map changing, or the user leaving a server. This call is required to display the achievement unlock notification dialog though, so if you have called SetAchievement then it's advisable to call this soon after that.

UpdateAvgRateStat

public static bool UpdateAvgRateStat(string statApiName, 
                float countThisSession, 
                double sessionLength)

Updates an AVGRATE stat with new values.

statApiName The 'API Name' of the stat. Must not be longer than k_cchStatNameMax.
countThisSession The value accumulation since the last call to this function.
sessionLength The amount of time in seconds since the last call to this function.

How To

Clear Achievements and Stats

You can clear achievements either by using the interface

API.StatsAndAchievements.Client.ClearAChievement(name);

or by using the Achievement Object directly

Resetting a stat is as simple as setting its value, see the Int Stat and Float Stat object for details

You can optionally reset all stats and achievements

API.StatsAndAchievements.Client.ResetAllStats(bool andAchievements);

Set a Stat or Achievement

Its generally simplest to use the artifact object directly so the Achievement Object, Int Stat or Float Stat. You can also set them through the interface

API.StatsAndAchievments.Client.SetStat(value);

API.StatsAndAchievements.Client.SetAchievement(achievementName);
