Perkel: My issue is that if game is added already by something like Steam i can't add it any longer manually and point to executable. Which is really annoying since i mod a lot of games AND somtimes i use version of games that come from developer own sites like in case of Factorio where i have both Steam and version from developer site and i use them both. Steam to play with friends and developer one for mods.

with GOG Galaxy 2.0 right now if i have Factorio in Steam i can no longer point to game manually.
Currently you can work around it by using the "+" on the top of recent/all games or cogwheel menu->"Add games & friends" and then -> "Add game manually". You can add a generic "Other platform" entry that points to executable of your choice to the game's stack, and choose which entry is the default - "Steam" or "Other".

As for manually adding multiple playtasks to existing game entries (+ missing from 1.2 commandline parameters) - we'll see what nearest months will bring in that matter. :)

damntry: How would I do that?

I can find the "Other platform" entry when searching manually with Ctrl + F, but its nowhere to be found when adding a game.
My instructions were not clear, sorry. :)

I will show it in a descriptive way - on a video.
I have Hollow Knight already on GOG, but let's say I want to add a custom executable:

Bear in mind this is a workaround, and we will add this as a functionality really soon. :)
