Changelog

1.2.0

• Lobby config actually works now: The [Lobby] options described back in 1.1.0 were never wired up in the shipped DLL. They exist for real in this version (ManageLobbyName, LobbyName, RefreshExistingData, TagFocus, TagMature, TagChill, TagBreak, TagModded). Tag overrides are optional — leave them empty to preserve whatever the game set.
• Owner-aware: Only the lobby host writes heartbeats now (Steam only lets the owner update lobby data), so clients no longer waste calls.
• Per-lobby tracking: The immediate first heartbeat now fires again whenever you start or join a new lobby in the same session, not just once at startup.
• Safer lobby parsing: Lobby codes are parsed with TryParse, so an unexpected value is skipped quietly instead of throwing.
• Interval clamping: Interval is clamped to 0.25–10 minutes to match the documented range.
• Clearer logging: Logs when a lobby is detected, when it ends, when you're not the host, plus a per-lobby heartbeat counter.
• No hard game dependency: Game and Steam access now go through reflection, so the mod is more resilient to On-Together updates.
• Config moved: LobbyHeartbeatEnabled and LobbyHeartbeatIntervalMinutes now live in a [General] section (previously [Steam]).

1.1.0

• Immediate first heartbeat: Timer now fires instantly when a lobby is detected instead of waiting for the full interval.
• Lobby metadata refresh: Each heartbeat re‑sets lobby name and tags (focus, mature, chill, break, modded) so Steam doesn't drop the listing after 14+ hours.
• New config options: LobbyName, TagFocus, TagMature, TagChill, TagBreak, TagModded in the [Lobby] section.
• Default interval lowered to 2 minutes for better reliability during very long sessions.

1.0.0

• Initial release of Heartbeat.
• Adds a periodic lobby heartbeat to keep Steam lobbies from expiring during long sessions.
• Config options: LobbyHeartbeatEnabled, LobbyHeartbeatIntervalMinutes.
