[1.0.0] Factorio 'freezes' when I alt+tab out of it for a while

Post by oof2win2 »

When I run Factorio for a while and then ALT+TAB out to production calculators, Discord etc, Factorio 'freezes'. By freezing, I mean that I can't select it as a focused window, but it is in the bottom of my taskbar. If I hover over it there, it shows all updates etc. When I click on it, nothing happens though. If I close all windows in front of Factorio (Chrome, Discord), I see the game playing, but I can't interact with it at all - robots are moving, trains moving, but I can't click anywhere in the window. It happens only when I am away from Factorio in a while and 'Full screen' is enabled
A while is 5+ minutes. Running on Windows, Steam
