[Suggestion] When Idle Master checks for card drop, check to see if the game is running #109

Sometimes Idle Master doesn't launch the game, and I don't notice (i'm either playing something or it's night-time and I'm asleep.)

I then notice that I wasted ~4 hours of idling and the game wasn't even launched. If you could add an additional check when the timer runs down, I think it would solve the problem. It could work like, If the number of card drops hasn't decreased then check if game is running.

It is actually most likely that an error has occurred and Idle Master has entered into a faulted state. When this happens do you typically close and restart Idle Master?

Now that I think about it, it might have been when I lock my computer. Might have lost connection or something.
