When checking Use Mangoapp option in the game menu, the tray icon close right after the game starts. The game is still running but the log show ## GAMESTOP after '0' seconds playtime.

The above commit should fix the issue. It might lead to other complications on other constellations, but the added WARN log should help to detect possible regressions caused by this.

Same problem on my side. The tray icon close when the game starts.

edit: whoops... full log please...

Just noticed a similar problem when using a custom script with ONLY_CUSTOMCMD enabled to run Factorio (native Linux game). SteamTinkerrLaunch's tray icon closes after the CUSTOMCMD ends. Perhaps this is related? Maybe the MangoApp launch finishes and STL thinks the game is closed so it closes itself, like how it closes itself when the custom command finishes even though the game is still running.

Not entirely sure it's relevant to attach a log when I'm really only chiming in to say these two might be related, but I will do so anyway in case it has any potential clues :smiley: I'm not really concerned with STL in my case, so this isn't a hijack to try and get attention on a different issue. Just mentioning this in case they're related as they share similar symptoms and similar logging.

steamtinkerlaunch.log

Note these lines which are a bit similar to OP's log:

Also note that as far as I know, the script isn't really "crashing", it's just completing.

Thanks for trying to help @sonic2kk, but no, that is not related (not unusual that a custom command stopping can't be detected. likely depends on the custom script).

Just re-tested again the original issue and it just works fine for me, so again a full log is needed (wild glass sphere guess: game window name related)
