Hi,
before you read, consider that my end goal is to create a helper script for the community to provide easily more apitraces to Pierre-Loup Griffais / Doitjutsin =)
1st idea: set the variable through the URI protocol
i'd like to start by a command my game with set ENV variables (for apitracing proton/dxvk) through the URI protocol or another mean.
eg.
To run it programmatically, i either have to restart Steam with the ENV variables set, or manually go click for each game to set the launch options.
2nd idea: reload localconfig.vdf on the run to set launch options
Also, i was thinking about modifying the "LaunchOptions" value in the localconfig.vdf but the client doesn't read it once it's been launched (see https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/6121#issuecomment-483008707).
Is there a way to for the Steam client to read the newly modified localconfig.vdf ?
Can the following API command provide this feature ? (haven't tried it because it seems hazardous)
steam://flushconfig/
Flushes and reloads the configs for each application (beta availability, etc.)

It's not possible at the moment.

That would solve my issue.
Thanks in advance.
