Bug: Minimizing game and alt-tabbing back leaves only dialogs showing

Post by Shadrach »

Hi,
this is kind of an "edge case" but something I do a lot in Windows is hit the Win+D button to minimize all active windows to taskbar. When I do that in FPSS and then try to Alt+Tab back to the game I end up with only the dialogs showing, while the map is missing.

No amount of Alt+Tabbing will restore the map. Only clicking the game in the taskbar will restore the game.
Clicking the regular minimize button in the title bar works as expected.

This is on Windows 10 22H2 x64.

That is a weird one. I would think we can fix that. I will pass this on to the team. Definitely not one seen in Beta.
OTS is looking forward to Southern Storm getting released!
