Convenience issue: Two exe files must be run to start the offline client.

It would be more convenient if YgoMasterClient.exe would start YgoMaster.exe automatically if it's not already running.

I wrote this batch script for that:

@echo off

C:
cd\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Yu-Gi-Oh!  Master Duel\Build

tasklist /fi "imagename eq YgoMaster.exe" |find ":" > nul
if not errorlevel 1 start "YGO Master" /B YgoMaster.exe

tasklist /fi "imagename eq YgoMasterClient.exe" |find ":" > nul
if not errorlevel 1 start "YGO Master Client" /B YgoMasterClient.exe

I could add something similar before this line of code to check for the YgoMaster.exe process and launch it if it doesn't exist. I'll look at doing that for the next update.

Same scenario, my friends and I struggling of opening 2 executables to run the Offline YGO, I wrote also mine 2 weeks ago that can launch both executables, and when closed the other one will close also. because my friends are just asking me since they lack of knowledge in this kind of topic, we will gladly appreciate for implementing it on your next update

Added in v1.5 (commit https://github.com/pixeltris/YgoMaster/commit/fe9aa117fd3ea0318d189afbd9a3b7160b4549d6). It will auto run YgoMaster.exe when you run YgoMasterClient.exe. Currently this isn't done as a sub process so YgoMaster wont auto close when YgoMasterClient closes. I might eventually change this logic, but for now it stays as is.
