[Ques] Can you access released game information?

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to make a mod where I need to figure out what reviews a released game got and how many people bought it. I know this is saved somewhere because I can pull it up in Game History, but I don’t know where it’s saved. Can anyone help?

You mean making a mod that replaces values in the game folders files?

No, simply accessing the information to use as inputs.

Random example:

  • Bill made and released a game that sold 50000 units
  • The mod finds how many units were sold, and gives Bill a notification saying “You sold 50000 units!”
#4

If you want to do this simply get the (latest) game from the GameManager.company.gameLog Array, and simply do something like unitsSold = game.unitsSold

That’s perfect, thanks for your help!

No problem :smiley: And I would suggest using .format(game.unitsSold) in the notification
