Needs Testing: Use one ManiaPlanet folder for all ManiaPlanet games #84

Closed Brunfunstudios closed 4 years ago

Brunfunstudios commented 5 years ago

In the compdata folder the games are linked via symlinks to the ManiaPlanet folder. This makes it possible to launch other trackmania games while running a mania planet game. The renaming and resymlinking seems to work fast enough that the game doesn't crash at least on the systems i tested on. If someone might test it to confirm it would be helpful. The TrackMania Demos are free so easy candidates to test.

@Brunfunstudios sorry for the late response. If you don't mind cleaning up a little with pylint I'm more than happy to merge this.

@simons-public now worrys. Completly forgot about this pulll request. Of course can easily clean this up. But i'm not sure if it wouldn't be more elegant if there would only be one script (f.e. mania_planet_games.py) and then either symlink all the appids to this or have tiny scripts that import the mania_planet_games.py file. Otherwise will just update with pylint cleanup.

No worries. It might be cleaner with symlinks, but I'm good to merge it as is.
