Run 5 minutes button running long

When in contact, it does advance the time by 5 minutes, but when out of contact, the tooltip says 20 minutes but it's actually 60. Don't know if this is WAD and you just have to change the tooltip? I'd prefer 20, actually.

Also, while it is running, you have to double-click on the pause button to get the game to actually pause.

Sounds like it may be a performance issue where the game doesn't recognize your input until later. Is this consistently reproducible from a save? What speed do you usually play on?

I normally play on normal speed. When I'm out of contact I might go to fast.

There's two things going on here: 1. the game is running off 60 minutes instead of 20 when you push the 5 minutes button and you're out of contact, and 2. You have to press the pause button a couple of times to actually stop the game.

Is this reproducible from a save? Can you recall if this was present in previous versions as well?

This is the way it works with me, whether it is a new game or I loaded a saved game.

I notice on the main screen where it has tips, it says that the "run 5 minutes" button will run for an hour if you are out of contact. I remember in previous editions it was 20 minutes and the tooltip still says 20 minutes. So maybe it is just the tooltip that needs to be changed.

Thanks, I was able to reproduce. We'll investigate.
