I've noticed some strange behavior in the game, and, though I am new and started playing only on version .03, I don't recall it in versions prior to .05, so I thought I'd bring it up here and ask before submitting it as a bug.

Has anyone else noticed that the game doesn't seem to be pausing completely?  Some passive events seem to occur while in pause mode.  For example, I just started a new game on a new map, and have not unpaused it yet.  While laying out my plans in the (d) menu and other beginning tasks, suddenly I get a notice that a cat has adopted a guy.  I've seen other things, but didn't really take note of them (I will be watching from here on).

So, is this normal, or should no events of any sort be occurring while the game is paused?

It's a well-known, long-standing bug. Cat adoptions, meetings, trader unloading and a few other jobs progress while designating things, regardless of pause. It's actually a nice way of getting your broker through the trade agreement process; pause and doodle with the mouse for a while, and it'll be done in no time.

Heh, alright.  Good to know.  Thanks.
