📋 Summary
Allow additional apps/versions to define their own configuration application path and configuration command-line parameters.
❗ Problem
LaunchBox games can have configuration launch settings, including a configuration application path and configuration command-line parameters.
However, when multiple versions of a game are kept under one entry using additional apps/versions, those versions do not appear to have their own separate configuration launch settings.
This can be limiting when different versions of the same game need different setup or configuration behavior.
💡 Proposal
Add optional configuration launch settings to additional apps/versions.
Each version should be able to define its own configuration application path and configuration command-line parameters, while falling back to the main game’s configuration settings when no version-specific values are set.
🧩 Use Cases
Configure different versions of the same ScummVM game separately
Use version-specific setup tools or launch options
Keep AGI and SCI versions of a game under one tidy entry
Avoid splitting versions into separate games just to support different configuration behavior
📦 Benefits
Makes the versions feature more flexible
Improves support for ScummVM and emulator edge cases
Helps users keep cleaner libraries
Reduces duplicate game entries
⚠️ Considerations
The UI should make it clear whether a version is using its own configuration settings or inheriting them from the main game. Existing per-version application command-line parameters should remain unchanged.
