AddStat

This function increments the user statistic for this game by the specified value.

Syntax

• boolean AddStat(string name, number add = 1)

Returns

Returns true if the value was successfully modified, otherwise false is returned.

Remarks

Since GetStat() can return -1 if the value is not successfully retrieved, it is better to use this function rather than calling SetStat(name, GetStat(name) + 1), which could potentially reset the user's progress.

Example

-- Initialize Steamworks
if not Steamworks.Initialize() then
    RuntimeError("Steamworks failed to initialize.")
    return 1
end

-- Increment the stat
Steamworks.AddStat("NumWins")

-- Retrieve the current value
local value = Steamworks.GetStat("NumWins")
Print(value)

-- Shutdown Steamworks
Steamworks.Shutdown()
