[Feature Request] None steam game detection/manual adding

[SaltySamurai]

I have some games added for emulation, at the moment I just keep them all on the same card so I know where they all are, but it would be nice to be able to use the sorting features in Tab Master to see games installed on the SD card even if it's an emulated title or other none steam games that does not show up as installed.

[CEbbinghaus]

Assuming you already have the latest version of MicroSDeck installed it should theoretically just work. Tab-Master just asks MicroSDeck for the games that are on the card and should display them in the list. I have been able to show non steam games as long as they were added to MicroSDeck

I was able to reproduce this. @CEbbinghaus can you modify this to a bug, and I'll work it?
I think I have a reliable way to trigger it, as well as maybe a way to workaround it such that the Non-Steam games stick around

[CEbbinghaus]

That would be awesome if you are able to reproduce it I would be eternally grateful if you posted the steps to reproduce the problems too so I can try make it happen locally too

[jfreuden]

Narrowing in on it, will post shortly. Right now it deletes all user-facing mappings almost every time I enter desktop mode and open Steam. The entry remains in the datastore, but the mapping seems invalid. When I get a cleaner repro list, I'll post here

[jfreuden]

I can't seem to figure out what last variable was triggering it 😢 . Merely going into desktop mode is not generally enough to cause the disassociation. While trying to hone in, I changed something and can't get it to pop anymore. I'll look at it more later this week unless someone else can beat me to a reliable repro.

[CEbbinghaus]

That is an amazing start. No wonder I could never repro it. I just SSH into my steamdeck so I never enter desktop mode. I will need to check with Nabel0 to see if this is what is happening to them.

I saved my datastore after it vanished again (so it had the stale info), and then resaved the store after I re-added it (so same data, but updated linking.
Comparing with diff -c <(jq -S . fileInStoreNotLinked.json) <(jq -S . fileInStoreIsLinked.json) yields the following diff

I don't make heads or tails of it yet other than some id's are changing. I'm going to delete TabMaster, wipe my datastore and get the same sort of data with a cleaner set of cards next time it repros

[CEbbinghaus]

Hmmm, that looks fairly standard, a link between a game and a card got changed (the last 2) and the hash of one of the cards changed (which also checks out). None of this is out of the ordinary

[jfreuden]

This should have been fixed by @CEbbinghaus in this commit from #14 . It should be on master / nightly builds
