Data property about gamesense-sdk

[davidtibbetts]

The value of data in an event is meant to be a stringified JSON object. It is this way in the API for various reasons.
It is documented in sending game events.

From the documentation:

---

{
  game: "MY_GAME",
  event: "HEALTH",
  data: "{\"value\": 75}"
}

Notes about the data:

• The values for game and event are limited to uppercase A-Z, 0-9, hyphen, and underscore characters.
• All three of the keys are mandatory for the event to be processed.
• The value for data is a string containing the stringified form of a JSON object. Any events that will be handled by the JSON API must contain the key value. For simplicity and greatest compatibility with user configurability of these events in SteelSeries Engine, it is recommended that the event data be a single value key with numeric values.
