How to turn off Auto Pause when game is minimized

[superluccix]

Couldnt find this topic on the forum. But was just wondering if there was a way to turn off Auto Pause when I minimize the game.

 

Reason being when I travel to Gilded Vale, I then wish to go to the inn, but the running distance is kinda far, so I click near the inn, minimize game, browse the internet for a couple seconds, then desire to reopen the game when im there.

 

Currently cant do that. Thanks in advance

I'm not sure you can. I've seen no option for it to not lose "focus". (edit: course sometimes I miss things, or maybe there's a way via editing a file, but dunno)

 

What I do is lower the resolution/put it in a window to access desktop, then raise it/unwindow it again, vs. alt-tab type minimizing.

In case you didn't know, there's a fast mode (press D). Running across the map doesn't take long at all - at least not long enough to do anything productive while the game is minimized.

^ For some that might still feel too long at times.

 

...I usually window the game briefly because I want to check on the forums and know I'm going back to the game in a few The long reload time after quitting makes me want to leave it running.
