Hello! My girlfriend loves Terraria, has multiple thousands of hours in the game, and convinced me to play it. While we were playing the very end of the game, I ran into two (or three?) bugs relating to the Achievement system. She had never seen these bugs before either, which is what made me want to post about them on here.
These all happened in an Online Multiplayer lobby, in which I was the Guest and not the Host.
Completely Vanilla Terraria v1.4.4.9, Steam, Windows 10 x64.
-------
1) Star Destroyer
We were breaking the four towers. My character is a mage, so I was using things like the Nimbus Rod & Rainbow Gun to deal passive damage to the tower while we were keeping the enemies from killing us. We both died while fighting, but even though we were both dead, my Rainbow Blast & Cloud were still dealing damage to the tower, defeating it while we were dead. This was the 3rd tower we fought, and we did not get the achievement until after resummoning and refighting the towers. We're not certain that's what caused it, but "the achievement progress doesn't increment while dead" is the most plausible explanation.
Note: This achievement failed to trigger in-game as well as on Steam, and both achievements were awarded at the same time afterwards.
-------
2) Slayer of Worlds
So, this achievement's glitch was one that was kinda twofold.
Firstly, I got the achievement on steam before defeating all of the bosses.
Secondly, the Steam and in-game achievements were decoupled, since I got the in-game achievement directly after defeating the Moonlord. This is the only time in which the in-game and Steam achievements have been decoupled.
I got the Steam achievement upon defeating the Lunatic Cultist, before fighting any of the Towers or the Moonlord. Worth noting that by this point, I'd defeated every other in-game boss, including the Old One's Army, Frost Moon, Halloween Moon, & Martian bosses, Duke Fishron, Deerclops, Fae Flayer, Queen Slime, Dreadnautilus, etc. My gf suggested that the steam total may not have been updated to include Deerclops or something to that effect.
Also it's worth noting, I got the Slayer of Worlds achievement *before* the Star Destroyer achievement. Just to make sure the order of things is clear.

Thank you for a wonderful game! I've had a lot of fun playing through it, and I hope you're able to fix these issues without too much difficulty!
