hi my game is set as a window format and im trying to make a timer work if minimized. the game is an alarm type thing. im making it so you could set it for 45 minutes so then 45 minutes later the alarm goes of but if i minimize it the timer stops. is there a way to make it so it doesn't stop?

In the 'Game Properties' panel, change the option 'Suspend game if lost focus' to No.
