> If I'm understanding the issue correctly, you can use the command line
options -a and -p to add multiple games with much fewer false positives
and without having to choose.
Using the -p and -a options does add only Orion Burger, though it still
complain:
{{{
The game in 'orionburger' seems to be an unknown game variant.
Please report the following data to the ScummVM team at
https://bugs.scummvm.org/ along with the name of the game you tried to add
and
its version, language, etc.:
Matched game IDs for the mads engine: nebular, phantom, dragonsphere,
forest
{"section1.hag", 0, "44773745949eee88762da4832dfb2517", 142360576},
Game Added:
Target: burger
GameID: m4:burger
Name: Orion Burger (DOS/English)
Language: English
Platform: DOS
Added 1 games
}}}
Even though the game appears to be a perfect match for this detection
entry:
{{{
{
{
"burger",
nullptr,
AD_ENTRY1s("burger.has",
"10c8064e9c771072122f50737ac97245", 730771),
Common::EN_ANY,
Common::kPlatformDOS,
ADGF_NO_FLAGS,
GUIO3(GUIO_NOASPECT, GUIO_NOMUSIC, GUIO_NOSPEECH)
},
GType_Burger,
kFeaturesCD
},
}}}
Once a game has been positively identified, I have no interest in adding
it as a possible unknown version of a completely different game. One that
isn't even use the same game engine.
