Pausing when tabbing out

Help Requests
1

Can I make it so that when you tab out of the page the game pauses? If so how would I go about this?

2

Games do pause. Timers never pause.

ugh well is there a way I can make the timer pause?

Use a frame timer, I’ll send a screenshot. It accounts for lag more than a normal timer which can be good for more precise actions

I recently made this recently and I’ll probably use it in all my newer games.

It’s weird whenever I see someone not using the Flowlab colors

Question, is the timer set number the same as the delay in the Timer block?

Yeah but it has a timer and I’m trying to avoid that so the game pauses

Galactians bundle does account for lag. The timer set is the number of frames, normally a timer will always activate at the exact same time even if there is lag, but doing so can cause things to no longer line up, that’s why I like using the number of frames that past
