Playing as GM and Player on
Once Unity is released, I plan to move the pathfinder campaign that I running to Fantasy Grounds. As I understand it, currently, in order to both be the GM and a player at the same time, you must run the PC version. With Unity, will it possible to do both on Steam, or will I need to do it on the PC version?

Welcome to the forums.
What you are wanting to do is something you can do in FG now, you do not need FGU to do it. That said, your understanding is confused or wrong. A GM can control any character they want, at any time. The GM can also "claim" any character they want so they show up like a Character and no other players can claim them.
That won't change with FGU. And, Steam actually is the exact same version, it's just that Steam puts a launcher in front of the FG executable. Again, I don't see that changing with FGU... (other than querying the operating system so it know what o/s version to install)

You will need to have 2 concurrent processes running. A GM session and a Player session. You can do this with the current version of FG running on Linux, MacOS or Windows regardless of if you purchased through Steam or the FG storefront.
