    Steamworks and Achievements



    I've thought on stuff like Steamworks and Achievements. We will probably only release 2.3 on Steam, but it will use all kind of Steamworks stuff: Achievements, Stats, Leaderboards. Hmm. This reminds me, I need to recreate the depot, Marek is too lazy to do that.

    How many achievements do there need to be, or can you just add them as time goes by? Maybe it was Xbox live that had a limit or requirement of the number of achievements.

    "Fail"
    "Attempt to ninemine"

    Only a small number of players will get the achievement since the rest won't know how :D

    They were just proof of concept. Garry said himself it was hard to decide on achievements since gmod has no goals and he can't hook stuff into certain addons.

    Outside references are boring, inside references for the win.

    If I had a dollar for every "boomer" "reference" I'd have over 9000 dollars.

    It works better for jeeps or other land vehicles because it implies it's one of these.
