Hello, I am having an issue with GetResumed() and I was wondering if this is a bug or as designed. It would be easier just to illustrate the issue. In the below snippet, GetResumed() works fine, i.e. the FPS print straight from loading and the 'Resumed' is displayed only after the window regains focus:

+ Code Snippet

SetVirtualResolution(480, 320)
SetSyncRate(60, 0)
SetClearColor(0, 0, 0)

do
    if GetRawKeyPressed(27) = 1
        end
    endif

    if GetResumed() = 1
        Print("Resumed")
        Sync()
        Sleep(2000)
    endif

    Print(ScreenFPS())

    Sync()
loop

Now, by adding a Sync() prior to the loop, GetResumed() returns 1 when the app initially starts, and therefore starts with the 'Resumed' displayed, like so:

+ Code Snippet

SetVirtualResolution(480, 320)
SetSyncRate(60, 0)
SetClearColor(0, 0, 0)

Sync()

do
    if GetRawKeyPressed(27) = 1
        end
    endif

    if GetResumed() = 1
        Print("Resumed")
        Sync()
        Sleep(2000)
    endif

    Print(ScreenFPS())

    Sync()
loop

This is causing a problem for me as I need to perform a Sync() to load in my LoadingScreen (I don't like to use AGKSplash.png), and my Pause menu is initiated immediately... Any ideas? Thank you!

You could skip the GetResumed() part of your code for the first sync.

+ Code Snippet

SetVirtualResolution(480, 320)
SetSyncRate(60, 0)
SetClearColor(0, 0, 0)

AppStartup as Integer
AppStartup = 1

do
    if GetRawKeyPressed(27) = 1
        end
    endif

        `Skip GetResumed On First Sync
        if AppStartup = 1
        AppStartup = 0
        else
    	    if GetResumed() = 1
            Print("Resumed")
            Sync()
            Sleep(2000)
            endif
        endif

    Print(ScreenFPS())

    Sync()
loop

Hello Grumpy Jedi, unfortunately I've tried that and it doesn't work. Having done a bit more digging, it appears that if you have a sync before the loop, GetResumed() will remain '1' until you call the function.

I definitely think this is a bug, but a simple work around would be to add the below after the Sync. This seems to refresh GetResumed(), and from then, it works as expected.

+ Code Snippet

if GetResumed()
    //Do nothing
endif

I'll add this to the bug board, if I can explain it haha...

Ah I see, you're saying GetResumed() is returning 1 before the main loop because you're using a sync() for the startup routine.

Why don't you just add a while loop before the main loop to pause until GetResumed() returns 0 like so.

+ Code Snippet

SetVirtualResolution(480, 320)
SetSyncRate(60, 0)
SetClearColor(0, 0, 0)



while GetResumed() = 1
Sync()
endwhile


do
    if GetRawKeyPressed(27) = 1
        end
    endif


  	if GetResumed() = 1
        Print("Resumed")
        Sync()
        Sleep(2000)
        endif

    Print(ScreenFPS())

    Sync()
loop

EDIT: oh nevermind you came up with your own solution it looks like
