Game pausing on long-term sim?

stealofhome · 03-24-2020, 08:54 AM

I tried to run a sim overnight but it didn't do much, so I'm guessing it paused itself at some point. Is there a different setting in this for 21? I had no problems doing the same thing in 20 just a couple nights ago.

Where did it pause at?

Running in commish with the Do not Disturb flag enabled the game shouldn't stop for you. We have noticed in earlier versions that sometimes AI rosters would not get set properly at times pausing games, but I believe it was the .33 patch which should have caught those missing ones.

I left a sim running overnight and it went from 1850-1891 without any pause that I know of.

I'm not sure where it paused because I basically started it and went to bed. All I know is that it only went from 2020 to 2025 in 10 hours or whatever and has gone from 25 to 29 in an hour or something. Game was still up on the screen and in simulating mode just hadn't gone anywhere. Only thing I could think was it wasn't in focus and so it automatically timed out. I do have my computer set to never go to sleep but the monitor turns off after an hour or something.
