Desktop mode & Full mode

Postby pedorlee » Thu Feb 09, 2017 12:09 pm

I dont know enough things about java so sorry for my naiveness.

Is it possible for this game to have 2 modes? The actual one and like the other games a full mode one.
This way probably some memory issues can be solved. ie: if the game is in background the fps drop a lot.

The frame rate drop when the game doesn't have focus wouldn't be fixed affected by having a fullscreen version of the game. Personally I can't see any real benefits from a fullscreen version.

It's an intended behavior to allow running multiple clients....type:
Code: Select all
:bghz 60

To have the game running always at 60 fps

There are benefits of a full screen (really depends on your videocard and drivers, might help with screen tearing f.e.). Not sure about the default client, but some custom clients (f.e. Amber) can be run in a full screen mode.

As for fps in the background the guys above answered already, it's a feature.
