Install and Run Space Engineers with Pulsar (Plugin Loader) on Linux

Adapted from opekope2/Space Engineers Plugin Loader Linux.md

Info

As I am new to Space Engineers and the plugin community, I was looking for solutions to run the game with plugins on Linux and found little support. I hope this helps others who come after me.

Due to changes in how the new Pulsar v2 is structured in the release zip file, the current version of StarCpt/SpaceEngineersLauncher (v1.0.10) is unable to handle unpacking and installing Pulsar. In addition, the new StarCpt/Pulsar-Installer is not very practical on Linux. The old loader will not be used for Pulsar going forward, so you will need the following steps to get the game working.

Run Space Engineers with Plugin Loader on Linux - New Method

Adapted from @GangolfOvaert's comment.

  1. Download the latest Space Engineers Launcher into the Bin64 folder of the game
  2. Set Space Engineers launch options in Steam to bash -c 'exec "${@/%SpaceEngineers.exe/SpaceEngineersLauncher.exe}"' -- %command% (arguments can be added after %command%)
  3. Launch Space Engineers from Steam

This method does not use SpaceEngineersLauncher.py, so downloading it is not required.
