Display/machine goes to sleep on KDE Plasma while playing a game

[Yasand123]

Describe the bug

This feature has never worked for me at all. I've followed the development on it and I've been testing as new versions get released but so far it has not worked for me. I always need to manually block sleep and screenlocking on KDE Plasma.

This isn't a version specific issue afaik, it's always been like this.

The issue is not related to specific game.

I have the same issue. As a note, playing with the keyboard will keep the system in "activity mode", but using a console will let it go in sleep or, at least, power save, which turns off the monitor. I have a Logitech controller.

I've been experiencing this same issue on KDE X11 using the Flatpak version of Heroic and playing with a controller. Sounds like it's been an outstanding bug in KDE since 2013 so I wouldn't hold my breath on it getting fixed from that end.

KDE Bug 328987

Some comments on the KDE bug ticket mention using the gamemoderun wrapper as a workaround. Not sure if it's viable in Flatpak or for Heroic, but it would be great to see a workaround for this.

Every time I try to open fall guys it gives me an error that says "Game folder appears to be deleted, do you want to remove the game from the installed list?" I say yes and nothing happens. Then I try uninstalling it and nothing happens, please fix it/help me.

@Bobthesuperman296 Please create a new issue. This has nothing todo with the issue in this thread.
