The Bashagha forces in Tripoli would have had no chance to succeed if the Turkish forces got involved. The best post-2011 Libya has been able to do is create somewhat stable coalitions in eastern and western Libya. There is less and less violence in Libya because of the stalemate, and that means there is currently no war in Libya. Haftar forces were effective and loyal because Haftar took care of them and minimized friendly casualties. This is a failure of the powerful Libyans to agree and the result has been perpetual chaos because of a failure to cooperate by the Libyans with the most power.
