Why does warcraft pause when you alt-tab when you play offline?

So you don't get owned while you can't see what's going on?

for testing set the cooldowns to 1

or have the escape key reset all cooldowns, etc.

If you have newgen you can make it now puase when you alt tab.

There is an option in war3err.lua.

ofc, it only works if you run newgen wc.

Why dont just make this:

cinematic skip
    Events
        Player - Player 1 (Red) skips a cinematic sequence
    Conditions
    Actions
        Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) owned by Player 1 (Red)) and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Unit - Reset ability cooldowns for (Picked unit)

Or if you want it in jass

function Trig_Melee_Initialization_Func001A takes nothing returns nothing
    call UnitResetCooldown( GetEnumUnit() )
endfunction

function Trig_Melee_Initialization_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    call ForGroupBJ( GetUnitsInRectOfPlayer(GetPlayableMapRect(), Player(0)), function Trig_Melee_Initialization_Func001A )
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_Melee_Initialization takes nothing returns nothing
    set gg_trg_Melee_Initialization = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerRegisterPlayerEventEndCinematic( gg_trg_Melee_Initialization, Player(0) )
    call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_Melee_Initialization, function Trig_Melee_Initialization_Actions )
endfunction

it only takes about 20 seconds to create this trigger...
And then delete it when you arent testing it anymore..
