Hi,

I'm frustrated by the 3.5 version because of two things :

1. if I alt tab, then click on the window icon to tab back, it closed the game ....

2. when that happens, the settings are reset each time.

It wouldn't be that bad except that I have to change keyboard controls every time because the game is in qwerty and my keyboard is azerty


bonus ; why does fast travel to the office take you to the bottom of the elevator? (making you have to wait 16 floors before getting back to where you left off)

sorry, don't mean to sound cheeky, but I don't usually post to say what I like, only what I don't like :p (I like your game and the idea you have, it's ground breaking) :)

The game is run in fullscreen mode by default (faster). This causes problems with alt-tab (a windows thing).

When run in window mode alt-tab should work ok.

Instead of running the game in window mode, you can just press the windows-key on your keyboard while in fullscreen mode. The game continues to run and you can still read the forums or do whatever else you want to do. At least my PC works this way.

That's odd, I run full screen and have no issues alt-tabbing back to windows, then back to the game. I had to do this just recently to see the settings for the collider, because I just could not remember the settings to make the event progress.

Hmm, it could be because any time I alt-tab out, I already have something else running to tab to, not just the desktop...

ehh it's not just this game, i've played 100s of games that don't alt tab well. I think its more of a widows aeropeek and transparency thin in 7 and above that causes this. When i stream i have to alt tab alot and i'll change my theme to high contrast or windows classic and that will stop that issue during games.
