Exit "loading" paused
« on: October 14, 2006, 12:30:00 pm »
Correct me if I'm wrong, but when you load a game, it seems to be paused if and only if you had it paused when you saved.

That's a nice feature, but I think it would be nice to have it configurable (via init.txt or whatever):

  • Always pause after load
  • Pause after load based on save
  • Never pause after load

If this option were available, I personally would use "always pause after load", because:  

  • It takes a considerable amount of time to load, so I often do something else (browse the net or whatever) while loading; it would be nice not to have to worry about keeping an eye out for the load completion.
  • If I haven't played for a few hours or whatever, I like to look around and get my bearings to remember what I was doing.  This is better paused.
