Its not a crash or anything like that its just that the when I run the game it does not show on steam that I am playing the game even though I can still play it.
Oh, so you are saying you don’t see - Running
appearing next to the game in your Steam Library? Am I understanding correctly now?
Yes thats right. I wonder if its something I can fix by verifying the game cache ? Because this did not happen until today
OK! Sorry for the confusion. To be honest with you, I don’t think that is a Stonehearth issue, but a Steam issue. @Albert is the one who typically does the Steam pushes, so he might no more. Happy to know that you can play the game without issue!
Alright thanks a lot for the assistance
Verifying the game files can’t hurt. I haven’t seen this before, but as jomaxro points out, it sounds like a Steam issue.
Don’t know if this helps at all but when lauching Stonehearth from Steam link (maybe Big Picture Mode) Stonehearth seems to run twice, i hadn’t tested it again but thought maybe it was related if Steam can’t determine what its running…maybe
