Version of OpenTTD

v0.59.1, Windows 11 23H2

Expected result

When running the game, having installed the Steam social plugin, I expect it to be visible in Game Options -> Social and green/running when Steam is open.

Actual result

The Steam social plugin fails to initialize, only using OpenTTD-Patches, but works if launched with vanilla OpenTTD via Steam. It's worth noting that the Discord integration does seem to work with both OpenTTD-patches and vanilla, so I'm not sure what's up with the Steam plugin specifically.

Steps to reproduce

  • Download the Steam social plugin and put it in the OpenTTD/social_integration folder in the home directory for your operating system
  • Launch OpenTTD-patches through Steam (I added a custom entry)
  • Open "Game Options -> Social" and observe that Steam is present, but shows "Failed to initialize"
  • (Bonus) Launch vanilla OpenTTD through Steam and observe that it is present and running, using the same plugin

I'm not sure how to get logs or debug further - if you have any guides on doing that, I'd be happy to help investigate.

I'm not a Steam user and don't have a Steam account. I'm not sure what this plugin is supposed to do on the Steam side. I'll have a look at the available documentation though.
