If the given progress value argument is greater than or equal to the given maxValue argument, the achievement will be automatically unlocked.
Returns true if achievement progression was successfully updated.
Returns false if given invalid arguments or if the steamworks.isLoggedOn property is false.
You can control where Steam’s notification popup will appear within the app by using the steamworks.setNotificationPosition() function.
Steam does not save the amount of progress made towards an achievement. Steam only saves an achievement’s lock/unlock status. This means that it’s up to the application developer to track and store this amount outside of Steam, such as to file, until it has been unlocked.
