Hi Matthias, thank you for your contribution. Where does the file need to sit in order to actually make use of it as intended? (I am not very well informed on a technical level. So please excuse me if this question sounds odd to you.) I hope I can add it where it is needed but fear I might not be able to because it probably needs to be copied in a specific folder outside of the game directory during the installation routine.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
/usr/share/appdata is the default location. See https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/423503 for an integration test. Sorry, I was a bit lazy. A better patch for everyone would be a true integration into the Makefile install rule.

The default location has since changed to /usr/share/metainfo, which is hopefully the final location. (This is a change in AppStream upstream which has hopefully been picked up by all the distributions by now.)

/usr/share/metainfo
, which is hopefully the final location. (This is a change in AppStream upstream which has hopefully been picked up by all the distributions by now.)See: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Metadata.html#spec-component-location
Desktop and AppData setup was finalized in [r960]. Note that I didn't test this, so let me know if there are problems.
/usr/share/applications
/usr/share/metainfo
See [r960], [r959], [r958].
