[REQ] Don´t "pause on task switch".

Castorp24 · 03-21-13, 07:44 PM

In Flight Simulator X, there´s the option to uncheck "Pause on task switch", so when your plane is flying straight and level you can minimize the simulator, go back to desktop and work with other applications, surf the net or whatever.
The flight simulator will go on working on itself, so that if you go back to it, say, one hour later, your plane will be far from the place you left it and closer to its destination.
Unfortunately you can´t do that now in SH5. If you minimize the program, the moment you go back to it, you will find the sub is exactly where you left it.
Is it even possible to fix this?

Thanks

As far as I know the answer is no. If you want to go back to your desktop to do something, pause SH5.

Actually you don't want to have the sim keep on running while you go back to your desktop to do something esle. You could end up attacked and sunk without even knowing it, until you pop the sim back up and see yer dead. BDU would not appreciate it one bit.

What about window mode

(ensure the selected window size is smaller than your monitor

Hadn´t thought about that. It is in the game options, isn´t it? I will try, thanks again
