Introduction

This plugin allows Steamworks integration into your RPG Maker Game.

HOW-TO (USAGE)

The plugin is meant to be easily usable for non-developers via plugin commands. Some things however require a "Callback" function, as they have to connect to steams servers to get information, or do things (e.g: unlocking achievements) these things may take some time, and therefore when using plugin commands that require a callback, you should apply a wait before executing more logic. The plugin is a wrapper for Greenworks module, meaning that the functions used by the plugin commands are usable by developers in their own plugins.

Plugin Commands

PluginCommandsMV.png

Plugin Commands are event commands that are used to call upon functions added by a plugin that aren't inherently a part of RPG Maker MV.

Here is a list of Plugin Command(s) that you may use:

Plugin commands are case insensitive so any case is usable. All plugins have the initial command prefix as "steamworks" followed by the action name, and then the arguments for the action.

All plugins that return a value, will return -1 if an error occurs. This is so you can check if something bad happens with events.

GETTING THE USERS STEAM NAME

Action Name(s): steamname, screenname, or name

Arguments: the variable id (a number) to place the name in.

Callback(s): No.

Usage Example(s):

steamworks steamname 1
steamworks screenname 999
StEaMwOrKs NAME 626

Usage Explanation:

First we use the command steamworks, this lets the plugin command interpreter know that we want to do a steamworks command, then we specify the action as getting the steam name, we then use the variable provided (in the examples: 1, 999 and 626) to store the steam name once we obtain it.

GETTING THE USERS STEAM ID/ACCOUNT ID

Action Name(s): steamid, accountid, or id

Arguments: the variable id (a number) to place the steam id in.

Callback(s): No.

Usage Example(s):

GETTING THE USERS STEAM LEVEL

This is an action that requires a callback, and must connect to steams server. It is advised to use a wait event to wait a few frames for this to occur.

Notetags

NotetagsMV.png

RPG Maker MV's editor is unable to allow for custom traits/properties that a game dev may wish to associate with a database object, event, map, etc. Notetags are used to work around such limitations by allowing the game dev to tag certain traits/properties using specific Notetags declared by the related plugin.

Here is a list of Notetag(s) that you may use.

---

This plugin makes it easy for non-scripters to grant their users some rewards for obtaining, or losing achievements. You do this by using note tags on the specified objects.

Note tags are case insensitive, so any casing will work.

The below are note tags usable in Item, Weapon, or Armor objects.
