Facepunch.Steamworks

Another fucking c# Steamworks implementation

Why

The Steamworks C# implementations I found that were compatible with Unity have worked for a long time. But I hate them all. For a number of different reasons.

• They're not C#, they're just a collection of functions.
• They're not up to date.
• They require a 3rd party native dll.
• They can't be compiled into a standalone dll (in Unity).
• They have a license.

C# is meant to make things easier. So lets try to wrap it up in a way that makes it all easier.

What

So say you want to print a list of your friends?

foreach ( var friend in client.Friends.All )
{
    Console.WriteLine( "{0}: {1}", friend.Id, friend.Name );
}

But what if you want to get a list of friends playing the same game that we're playing?

foreach ( var friend in client.Friends.All.Where( x => x.IsPlayingThisGame ) )
{
    Console.WriteLine( "{0}: {1}", friend.Id, friend.Name );
}

You can view examples of everything in the Facepunch.Steamworks.Test project.

Usage

Client

Compile and add the library to your project. To create a client you can do this.

var client = new Facepunch.Steamworks.Client( 252490 );

Replace 252490 with the appid of your game. The client is disposable, so when you're done you should probably call..

client.Dispose();

Or use it in a using block if you can.

Server

To create a server do this.

var server = new Facepunch.Steamworks.Server( 252490, 0, 28015, true, "MyGame453" );

This will register a secure server for game 252490, any ip, port 28015. Again, more usage in the Facepunch.Steamworks.Test project.
