As there now seems to be a 2 hour delay, I'd suggest the following:

Came here to mention this. I'm not expecting it to be very hard to implement, but JShackles is a busy guy :P

+1 for this idea

Would love this implemented. I understand author is a busy busy man.

For now, you can manually run steam-idle.exe appid a bunch of times with different appids, and it'll pop up a window for each game it's idling, then quit them all after 2 hours and start idlemaster.exe again. (You can find it in appdata\local\apps\2.0... somewhere in your user folder). (open a command prompt and drag the exe file onto it, and type a space and the appid).

@Mikachu That's way too much work.

HyphenSam commented 9 years ago

I agree, that's way too much work for an app designed to be convenient. If I were to do that I might as well use Steam Achievement Manager.

Nice idea Dose it confirm to work?

MonkAlex commented 9 years ago

So, check Fork https://github.com/MonkAlex/idle_master pls. Improved - start all games have a playtime < 2 hours. Not work - "Wait until all games have a playtime > 2 hours." -- start idle AND all other game. No idea, how it working.

Need test.

Currently only 30 games idle at a time. Is this wanted / safer?

MonkAlex commented 9 years ago

Steam add playtime only for 30-35 game in one time.
