Create a Progression

In this how-to guide, we are going to create a progression for our game and add a tier to it.

To start, lets navigate to the Progressions menu by clicking on Progressions in the Game Systems menu.

To create a new progression, click the Create button in the top right corner. This will display a model where you can enter the name and key of the Progression and configure the structure of how the progression will work.

The following information can be set in this menu, and can also be edited after the Progression has been created.

• Name: The name of the Progression, you can use this to display it in your game.

• Key: Key is used for retrieving progressions from your game instead of using ID.

• Allow Game Writes: Allows you to authorise the Game API to submit points to progressions. This is not recommended as players have the ability to exploit this and easily add points to their progressions.

• Active: This determines if the progression is active, inactive progressions cannot be interacted with from your game, this can be set from your web console.

Your progression will now appear in the list of progressions for your game, click on the View button.

As you might notice, the system creates the first tier with 0 points threshold automatically, the first tier cannot be deleted.

Next, click on the Add Tier(s) button to add a second tier which requires 100 points to unlock.

Your progression should now have 2 tiers.

You can also add rewards to progression tiers by expanding the tier and clicking the Add Reward button. Then simply click on the desired reward type and choose a reward from the list.

You have now created your first Progression in LootLocker and are ready to implement it in your game.
