Automatic Game mode/No sleep mode?

Previously, when a game process started, the Game mode was automatically triggered. That doesn't work anymore. The No sleep mode also isn't triggered automatically.

The strange thing is, as soon as I change a setting in PL GUI (e. g. log setting), the Game mode triggers (the entry in the log appears), but only one time.

PL latest beta28, Windows 7 x64. Maybe the change in the Keep running feature broke something?

New here , don't mean to hijack post but could someone explain the difference between game mode of free version and automatic game mode of pro version ?
From reading doc's the standard game mode you link a game "exe" in PO so it tries to keep resources high for this game, then what does auto game mode add ?

PS: whats up with verification question "sum of 3+5" ,I thought it was 8 ??

i am experiencing the same issue as boco only when using the beta, any anti-sleep or gaming mode rules i have set do not get triggered until i have configured something in the processlasso gui.

Using the stable anti-sleep and gaming mode work as expected.

The difference between Automated Game Mode and Game Mode is that Automated Game Mode gets started automatically when the games you specify are started. So, that's the only difference.

As for trouble with rule application in the latest beta, I will evaluate that. Thank you for the report.

LOL, did I really get that wrong? let me go look, man how embarrassing ;p. I probably had an answer, then decided to change the numbers, but didn't change the answer.. or something like that.

UPDATE: FIXED. I had updated the question, but not the answer, as I surmised. Thanks for telling me, I may have never noticed.

Hehe, yeh , most coders are good in math ;)
To be honest I actually Googled  "sum of 3+5"  just to make sure I wasn't going mad  ;D

Don't blame Jeremy, it was a server-side problem - PHP instruction returned inexact result of addition of 3 and 5 ;D
