Sometimes it's hard to keep war3 game window active.

I want to continue my working while debugging, but when my cursor moves out from war3 game window, and when war3 lose the focus in single-player mode, the game automatically paused.

How to make it continuing playing?

Thank you in advance.

??????? This has always been like this, in single player the game gets paused if you alt tab...
Yes it's always been like this, I'm trying to find a way to solve it, which really trouble me while debugging...
I'm currently trying AHK, hope it works.
:/

Edit: Well, the ahk does not work.

by adding a starting/command line Argument to a shortcut to the game one can disable this pauses.

If you are testing over world Editor, the up to date Editor has a Checkbox in preferences - test for map testing over world editor.

Here is a post about starting Arguments in Warcraft 3 some might be deprectated.
