Chaos Chain
Attention, freelancers! Well, I added Steam Rich Presence to the game. I've wanted to add this just for fun for a long time, and I FINALLY got it working! For those of you that don't know what Steam Rich Presence is, it is basically something that works with the Steam community/friends system to show details about what you're doing in game while playing. Now, since this is a singleplayer game, it isn't a huge deal, but it's something I really wanted to include and get working for 1: proof that I could get it working with this engine, and 2: I thought it would be fun to have. I personally love looking at my friends list every now and then and seeing other games listed that they're playing and it provides details and info into what they're doing. It doesn't give a ton of detail, but it's just a little something extra that hooks directly into Steam and gives us more of a community presence. Here are some example images: Steam post image Steam post image Steam post image Here is a full list of strings and tokens that I added:
"#Status_MainMenu" "Staring at a bleak future" "#Status_Exploring" "Exploring %map%" "#Status_Travel" "Moving through the sprawl" "#Status_Hacking" "Breaching a system" "#Status_PDA" "Scanning local data" "#Status_Shop" "Making shady deals" "#Status_Inventory" "Rummaging through backpack" "#Status_Equip" "Prepping hardware" "#Status_Skill" "Adapting to survive" "#Status_Crafting" "Salvaging scrap" "#Status_Campfire" "Huddled by a burn barrel" "#Status_Rest" "Lying low for awhile" "#Status_Combat" "Desperately trying not to die" "#Status_Dead" "Flatlining" "#Status_File" "Deep in the databanks" "#Status_Surgery" "Under anesthesia" "#Status_Datalog" "Reviewing contracts" "#Status_CharCreate" "Compiling identity data" "#Status_Squad" "Assembling a squad" "#Status_Stash" "Stashing gear for later" "#Status_Loot" "Scavenging for loot"
I'm probably going to update some of these because they are kind of generic right now but I will make them fit in better with the rest of the game's tone.
