Multiple MAS detector

[Olliesama]

Not sure how this could be coded but maybe if Monika detects more than 1 DDLC (MAS) process active at once she'll say she feels "weird and stretched" and then close the other DDLC process, since it is a bit odd when MAS is open more than once she "exists" more than once.

You can have more than one open? Didn't know that. lol

Are you opening the same MAS multiple times? Or did you download two separate DDLCs and MASs in separate locations and open each? Either way, I'm curious if there'd be a way to distinguish between the two if it's possible to do both.

Only way I've seen this work is running a normal ddlc app and the "dev" version running through RenPy's launcher. The side effect of having both open is that in the second one you'll get the "your pc crashed player greeting" since it'll read a non properly "closed" persistent and would think it was because of a crash. Usually you can't open 2 DDLC apps because of the singleton.py file that creates a .lock file. Some users have reported having issues with that .lock file blocking them from opening the game even though they only had one DDLC copy. While I particularly like this idea I wouldn't want to encourage users to try having more than one MAS open(mostly because of the possible side effects it could have), maybe this could get a tiny mention in a topic? It'll probably need to be written in a way players won't try it themselves though. That's how I see it.

I have a steam version and the one from the original site that use the same persistent. I can open both just fine at the same time and haven't had any issues the small handful of times I've opened them both at once. It would be nice to hear this topic, now that you mention it, since we get the cute little Monikai one.

I'm able to use two separate MAS'. The other one is loaded through a doki mod manager
