ASF keeps trying to login indefinitely when you're "LoggedInElsewhere"

See original GitHub issue

Bug

Description

Whenever I open any game using the Steam client in one of my bots, ASF shows me this:

log.txt (line 321 to 329)

However, in previous ASF versions, if you were playing any game on Steam, ASF would not keep trying to login on that account forever, like it does now. I’m not sure if this is intended behavior, but it’s very annoying…

Expected behavior

ASF stops trying to login when I’m playing something.

Actual behavior

ASF keeps trying to login indefinitely.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open ASF
  2. Open any game in your Steam client
  3. ASF will spam your terminal window while connecting/disconnecting from your account

Additional info

I know that you will say that those bunches of warnings are simply Steam’s fuckups, but maybe it is worth checking out those warnings? I’ve been monitoring them.

It’s good that you reported this issue, I found the other one while fixing it, so 3.0.1.9 is on its way. Thanks!

Like I guessed it has to do with GamesPlayedWhileIdle.
