Playing while Idle Master is idling
Haven't found any Question about that so far.
What happens if you start another Game while the Idle Master is idling another one?

Will it still drop the idle'd Game Cards, or will Steam switch to drop cards of the Game i am playing.

Or even both?

I tried it and it droped for me
KorosuRei 2015 年 2 月 1 日 上午 1:27 
what dropped?
Cards from the Game you played, or Cards from the IM?
Johnny 2015 年 2 月 1 日 上午 1:28 
IM :)
KorosuRei 2015 年 2 月 1 日 上午 1:29 
Ah, that's very good then!
Thank you :)

Also i was playing game where i got full amount of cards already so not sure what will happen if you still have cards on that game

I see.
Well i just wanted to play one with no Drops left anyways.

But might be worth finding out if both can Drop.

Yeah. :) could you update this thread in case it will/wont work with both?

So i guess the IM drops are prior to the Game you're playing.
Since it still shows you playing the Game the Idle master is extracting.
And not the one you are actually playing.

If you Idle a game and play a game with that still has card drops both games should drop cards at the same time.

Idling a game with IM and playing a game is esentially the same thing. Steam does not know that you are using a program to idle.

Keep in mind though that if you have more than one game running to get card drops the drop rates are drastically decreased meaning it takes longer to drop cards. It will basically take you just as long to run two games at the same time to get the cards as it would to run the games back to back. So there is no benefit to running multiple games.

I believe origianally when cards came out you could run multiple games at once and the drop rates where not affected. Steam changed it so it can see multiple games being run and decreases each games drop rates.

I can imagine how Steam gets confused when you are idling and playing at the same time
Sepioth 2015 年 2 月 2 日 下午 12:30 
It does not get confused. It knows that you are running more than one game that has cards. It will drop cards for both games at the same time.

They already thought of people doing this and designed it to take you even longer to get cards so people can not run 6 games at once to get the drops faster.

There is zero benefit to running more than one game at a time. It will still take the same amount of time to get all your cards.
KorosuRei 2015 年 2 月 2 日 下午 12:34 
Good to know, thank you! :D
