Summary0010206: The steam overlay moves to the server window
DescriptionI am on a mac.
I was going to be playing with a friend, and we were talking over steam chat, not really using the ingame chat as we started before everyone was connected.
Once I launched the sever (I was hosting), whenever I pressed shift-tab, it would only bring up the steam overlay on the server browser. Since I was trying to be in fullscreen, I was thus unable to talk to my friend. Not good.
I was forced to run the game in windowed mode, which was worse.

I just checked, and I can confirm that this does not happen in the windows version.

I'm not sure how much we can do with this, unfortunately, but I'll check.

Thanks!

* Fixed the game to no longer try to initialize steamworks when it's running in server mode.

This may or may not fix the issue, but if it does not then I suggest running the game manually (not from the steam client) and then launching the server, then launching it from within steam itself for the client.

It seems that this is a bug in steamworks on the mac, unless the fix above actually does fix this, so fingers crossed!

Well, I'm not sure, but I think it's fixed. I can open the steam overlay on both of them now.
It wasn't working last night though....
I'll reopen it if I ever see it again.
