Provide feedback if Punk can't connect to Steam #24

Closed Harcourt1 closed 7 years ago

Started the client and inputed my account, still loading for about an hour. Nvm, needed to restart my wifi

It must have crashed, that's why it just kept "Loading". Hard to tell why though.

In case something like this happens again, open Dev tools with Alt+Command+I (or via menu bar) and the error will be logged there.

edit. Thinking about this once again, it was probably just trying to connect over and over again but some network error prevented it from being successful. Seems like the issue has been solved.

Reopening this.

I'd like to provide some feedback to user in case Punk can't even connect to Steam.

Harcourt1 commented 8 years ago

Check my crash log patch, could do something like that.

scholtzm commented 8 years ago

The app in your case didn't really crash, it was just trying to connect over and over again but it wasn't providing any info about it. I'll think about how this can be improved later.

Punk now displays detailed info about disconnect status - specific error as well as retry count: https://github.com/scholtzm/punk/commit/d6357076a7283cb08903b83679e94edb3f4409ef

This can be closed now. Will be available in the next release.
