  • Are there any plans on adding a function to CC where the game window will remain frozen when running in the background?

    I noticed my .exe still registers any "Control Down" commands while I'm typing something outside the game and it can mess up certain variables I've got set up at times. I think it'll also make it possible for any hostiles to attack a player character while the game runs in the background.

    I don't know if there's any big demand for such a feature but having it would be nice if possible. Unless there's a method I'm not familiar with that can do just that.

  • I usually sets up a global variable called "Pause"

    + Cursor: [negated] Cursor: Is on-screen

    -> System: Set global variable 'Pause' to 1

    and then if Pause = 1 you can disable player input, set time scale = 0 or other things like that.

  • I'll give that a shot later, sounds like a good alternate solution to the problem at the moment.

    Many thanks, shinkan!

  • Thank you very much. I just hope to hear him start singing and start posting his videos.
