Stop pausing when in menu selection unless explicitly told to do so?
« on: June 19, 2010, 10:24:19 am »
Hi guys

Is there anyway to stop the game from pausing when I am browsing menu, for example, digging a room?  It would speed up the game considerably.

My guess would be that it screws up pathfinding.
There are a lot of times when I've wanted {v}iew and loo{k} to work without pausing...

Dear Toady: Keep up the good work man, we appreciate you and the game beyond words.

Eh, I'm fine with it. I WANT the game to pause while I'm menu-ing so my dwarves don't do silly things while I'm not looking. I wish the squad menu would auto-pause too.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.
