See Rich Presence Localization for more info, including a link to a page for testing this rich presence data. If steam_display is not set to a valid localization tag, then rich presence will not be displayed in the Steam client.

steam_player_group - When set, indicates to the Steam client that the player is a member of a particular group. Players in the same group may be organized together in various places in the Steam UI. This string could identify a party, a server, or whatever grouping is relevant for your game. The string itself is not displayed to users.

steam_player_group_size - When set, indicates the total number of players in the steam_player_group. The Steam client may use this number to display additional information about a group when all of the members are not part of a user's friends list. (For example, "Bob, Pete, and 4 more".)

You can clear all of the keys for the current user with clearRichPresence. To get rich presence keys for friends use getFriendRichPresence.

Returns: bool
