Description
I know the AGS engine games are being added to the detector now, but there are many cases right now where they're detected... but still added with 'ags-fallback-#' which i find strange. There are also some cases where they're added as different engines than they should be. This is just a listing, and you're free to close this issue if it's 'too wide' or will change too fast to verify later.
Games which scan like if from another engine (too):
[maniacsports-win] platform=windows gameid=maniacsports description=Maniac Sports (Windows/English) language=en path=/media/i3/Mordred/Games/Adventure Game Studio/Maniac Mansion Deluxe engineid=director guioptions=noAspect lang_English [maniacmansiondeluxe] gameid=maniacmansiondeluxe description=Maniac Mansion Deluxe path=/media/i3/Mordred/Games/Adventure Game Studio/Maniac Mansion Deluxe engineid=ags guioptions=noLang
and

Games which have duplicate 'ags-fallback' and 'actual game id' but do recognize they're ags games:
[adateinthepark] gameid=adateinthepark description=A Date in the Park (itch.io/Steam) extra=itch.io/Steam path=/media/i3/Mordred/Games/Adventure Game Studio/A Date in the Park engineid=ags guioptions=noLang [ags-fallback-39] gameid=ags description=Adventure Game Studio Game path=/media/i3/Mordred/Games/Adventure Game Studio/A Date in the Park engineid=ags guioptions=noLang [suspiciousmind] gameid=suspiciousmind description=Suspicious Mind path=/media/i3/Mordred/Games/Adventure Game Studio/Suspicious Mind engineid=ags guioptions=noLang [ags-fallback-2] gameid=ags description=Adventure Game Studio Game path=/media/i3/Mordred/Games/Adventure Game Studio/Suspicious Mind engineid=ags guioptions=noLang [ags-fallback-6] gameid=ags description=Adventure Game Studio Game path=/media/i3/Mordred/Games/Adventure Game Studio/Infinite Monkeys engineid=ags guioptions=noLang [infinitemonkeys] gameid=infinitemonkeys description=Infinite Monkeys path=/media/i3/Mordred/Games/Adventure Game Studio/Infinite Monkeys engineid=ags guioptions=noLang
...
In short there are a lot of these, and as they all seem to be the same bug, i'm not going to keep typing them.

@i30817 Has the situation improved? Do you still have misdetections and/or undetected versions?
comment:5 by , 20 months ago
Closing due to lack of communication (and the fact that hundreds of games have been added since then).
Please reopen or open a new issue if you find other games that are not detected/misdetected

This can be closed i think. Games scanned as 'fallback' don't duplicate anymore and the two normal duplicates i mentioned here no longer happen.
The first two duplicates are caused by entries in the Director detection tables. The maniac sports has been fixed some time ago while i just pushed the vvcyber one.
The ags-fallback entries are actual ags games that were not present in the tables at the time, probably the linux/data only version or some newer version.
Many have been added by now, could you please give it a new run? Thanks
