Auto launch steam if not running

Open xnuken opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Add a check if using a Steam account to launch steam if it's not already running.

Any plans to add this?

It maybe easier to just set Steam to auto-start or (if Linux) make a shell script to start them both. The issues I see with this feature are that it would be:

  • Broken for Flatpak users
  • Redundant to Deck users
  • Irrelevant to half the remaining users

If we're talking XLCore, a notice to the user might be a good idea. SteamAPI_Init() just kind of fails and throws its arms up.

You could make it an option for that half of the remaining users that wants it?

Would be nice to have since now there is a dedicated launcher for linux so there is no real reason not to add this.

Already implemented, will be in the next release
