Running program opens Discord Games Library and closes

[balt-dev]

I tried to run this code:

import discordsdk as dsdk
import time

APP_ID = 123456789 # Fake ID
START_TIME = time.time()

app = dsdk.Discord(APP_ID,dsdk.CreateFlags.default)
activity_manager = app.get_activity_manager()

activity = dsdk.Activity()
activity.state = "Testing discordsdk"

def callback(result):
    if result == dsdk.Result.ok:
        print("Set")
    else:
        raise Exception(result)

activity_manager.update_activity(activity,callback)

while 1:
    time.sleep(15)
    app.run_callbacks()

but instead of actually doing anything, it closed the program and brought my Discord app to this screen: Why is this happening??

The SDK can be quite temperamental at times. Try using no_require_discord instead of default in the create flags, and if that doesn't work you might want to try just restarting your PC

Using no_require_discord ends up with internal_error: result 4.

Code runs fine on my end: I set the APP_ID to 771366171110932490 and changed the time.sleep interval to 0.1 seconds instead of 15. The SDK is incredibly buggy and sadly there isn't a huge amount I can do about it, just make sure you are using the DLL from version 2.5.6.

Seems to work fine after restarting my computer. Weird.

Something must have been broken in the IPC pipe, glad it works now
