Achievements!

[FruitieX]

Challenges, actions and the line between these seems a bit confusing at the moment.

What we could do instead is a system of achievements. These would be different in that you don't explicitly need to "participate" or "join" an achievement in any way, instead you just automatically "unlock" them by completing the required conditions (such as finishing 10 actions of any kind).

[FruitieX]

Marking as important because this influences quite a bit of (as of yet unfinished!) code that deals with actions & challenges.

[FruitieX]

It has been agreed that we will implement achievements instead of challenges.

[sanja7s]

Having achievements instead of challenges is good.

-- one more note however would be, if possible, to have some way to tell to the people when they are some % close to achieving some of "achievements" as that way we could still keep the goal setting aspect in our app. -- perhaps a user could see what are the closest achievements on the way for him? would that be feasible?

[FruitieX]

Yep, we should be able to tell how close a user is to completing a certain achievement. We could then display these sorted according to percentage completed on eg. the app front page.

[sanja7s]

that sounds perfect. in that way, people do not even need to subscribe to "achievements" but will still in a way get subscribed.

[FruitieX]

Yes, they just get that achievement right away when they have completed some goal/goals.

Ideas:

• Complete 1, 3, 5, 10 actions
• Save 10, 20, 50, 75, 100, 150, 200, 300, 500, 1000 leaves worth of energy
• Participate in a community and save together! (100, 250, 500, 1000, 3000, 10000 leaves saved in a community)
• Review an action
• Create an action
• Have someone complete one of your actions
• Participate in a community discussion by posting a comment
• Be a beta tester
• Use the app daily for one week
• Unlock 25%, 50%, 75%, 90% of all achievements

etc...

[sanja7s]

• Be first of your friends (belong to a community first to) achieve something

[sanja7s]

Good ideas, let us discuss later today their feasibility and which ones are the best to have

[FruitieX]

62 implemented the achievements framework.

TODO

• Unit tests
• Implement all achievement ideas discussed above

[FruitieX]

Several achievements are still awaiting other completion of other features, such as households, energy data...

Approx. half of the above ideas are now implemented in the master branch.
