Double Click Game loads the PREVIOUS game

Not a deal breaking issue, but annoying, I can't be the only one, I will describe. Using theme Airy 1.4.  not sure if issue hapens with other themes yet, but I think it did.

Once a game is lcicked, and I close the game to load a new one, retroarch, if I double click a different game right away it will load the game I just quit. Happens every time.  but If I click the new game ONCE, then wait a bit for the media on the right to load and display, then I can double click after that and the new game will load.  It looks to me like launchbox is not switching to the new game quickly enough, it is pausing to fetch and display media, then it switches the selected game, in a wrong order.  If this is the case, launchbox should switch the selected game, then load media.

Just my educated idea of what ig going on.  I did not test on SSD, it is a raid1 mirror 2 enterprise drives 14 TB each, thinking mayhbe it happens only on slower hard drives but not noticed by the team using it on ssds all the time.

If the team looks into this I would love to hear if they can reproduce this and also what is the cause, and hopefully then some fix if it is on your end.

I'd verify you're having the same issue in Default, we had one other report in recent days of this behavior with another theme of mine. Both themes use pretty similar grid code, I haven't had time to see if I have a binding that may not be updating as fast as possible. I personally have never ran into this issue, but I admit most of the time I'm using LaunchBox it's for editing my library metadata more so than actually launching the game.

I will do more tests for sure, I reported immediately as i noticed the issue. I will try default theme than another different theme. If needed, I will try it on an SSD too rather than mechaniclal hard drives if necessary, and do a full report back. It is not somehtjing that hinders the gaming experience much, just a lisle something I would like to help contribute and fix if it is something that others are dealing with too.  Stay tuined!
