Return the value of the requested Statistic.

Arguments[edit]
- achievementID (number) - The ID of the Achievement
Returns[edit]
- value (string) - The value of the requested Statistic.
Details[edit]
Using the achievementID's of actual Achievements, as opposed to statistics, generates strange results. More testing is needed.
Example[edit]
Here is a function that will take any statistic category (like Battlegrounds
) and any statistic title in that category (like Battlegrounds played
) and will return the statistic ID for that statistic, so it can be used in other functions.
function GetStatisticId(CategoryTitle, StatisticTitle)
local str = ""
for _, CategoryId in pairs(GetStatisticsCategoryList()) do
local Title, ParentCategoryId, Something
Title, ParentCategoryId, Something = GetCategoryInfo(CategoryId)
if Title == CategoryTitle then
local i
local statisticCount = GetCategoryNumAchievements(CategoryId)
for i = 1, statisticCount do
local IDNumber, Name, Points, Completed, Month, Day, Year, Description, Flags, Image, RewardText
IDNumber, Name, Points, Completed, Month, Day, Year, Description, Flags, Image, RewardText = GetAchievementInfo(CategoryId, i)
if Name == StatisticTitle then
return IDNumber
end
end
end
end
return -1
end
