Counterwatch v2.6.0 - Quality-Of-Life is important

Lots of quality-of-life polish in this one. I added a close confirmation dialog so you don't accidentally quit mid-match, made the game status banners expandable with details, and you'll now get a Windows notification when a game comes back online. Session history also got some love with hero portraits and better navigation.


New Features

Close Confirmation

  • Close Confirmation During Gameplay: Closing the app while in a match now shows a confirmation dialog instead of quitting immediately. Plus subscribers can choose to minimize to tray instead. Your preference is saved in Settings under "Close button behavior"

Game Status

  • Expandable Status Banners: When Overwatch or Marvel Rivals tracking is unavailable, you can now click "More info" to see what's happening, what you can do, and a link to the Discord server
  • Recovery Notifications: Get a Windows notification when a game you track comes back online, even if the app is minimized

Improvements

Session History

  • Hero Portraits on Session Cards: Hero portraits now show on collapsed session cards without needing to expand them first
  • Preserved Navigation State: Clicking back from a match detail now keeps your session expanded instead of collapsing everything

Live Session

  • Better Waiting Messages: Replaced the vague "Warming up..." text with clearer messaging about what's happening. When game data integration is having issues, you'll see a specific warning instead of just a spinner

Window Management

  • Monitor Awareness: Desktop windows now properly move off your game monitor when a match starts, including on app startup. Closing a secondary window brings back the launcher instead of leaving you with nothing

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed the update banner disappearing when navigating between pages
  • Fixed duplicate alerts showing when game data is unavailable
  • Fixed the last session map strip showing too many maps
  • Fixed the status banner showing contradictory information when a fix is rolling out
