NSLScanner fails while creating symlinks or after creating shortcuts

[Sythog]

NonSteamLaunchers-On-Steam-Deck/NSLGameScanner.py

Line 466 in f34088d

if os.path.exists(current_path):

I already have symlinks for the launchers I have installed named exactly as folder name in the folder_names dictionary. The script enters the if condition on L466 and attempts to rename the symlink to the appid on L475. Of course, it fails and no shortcuts are created :(

I changed L466 to

 if os.path.exists(current_path) and not os.path.islink(current_path): 

but the script hangs after printing "Created shortcuts"

@moraroy hey, do you have any thoughts and/or plans on that?
please don't hesitate to let me know if you need any help. I'm not a python guru, but I know a thing or two.
I just need a general direction on where to start with this if you'd like me to make a contribution

@Sythog yes I do actually, currently concentrating in making the decky plugin version a but better sorry I haven't got back to you. I do have a plan actually I would like to get rid of the symlinks in the compatdata folder all together. You have discord? Message me @moraroy
