About the date modified field

Hello everyone,

I was curious about the one instance where the "date modifed" field is updating. So if you modify and other field of a game "date modifed" is changed to that date and time (as it should be), but "date modifed" changes also when you click a game even if you dont change anything (even if you dont play them).

I am using this field to keep track of  what launchbox is changed (metadata wise), so it is not useful as much when it is changing when I click on things. I know it wasnt changing when you click before but didnt notice the exact update that caused this change. My main question is this a bug from an update or is it working as intended now? Of course this is not a big issue, but it bugs me a little bit.

Have a nice day!

It's possible that metadata WAS changed by clicking on a game. For example if you have achievements enabled in GameDetails it scans for achievements and saves your progress stats to the game. I believe we verify the stat actually changed before marking the game modified but I'd have to look at the code and confirm (not at my dev machine atm).
