hey guys

so i just recently started playing this game and well i really would like to have the game working in the background so i can do other tasks (i am running it in window mode, however when i click on another window the game automatically pauses) how do i change this?

You can't. That's the problem. In fullscreen, however, it still works in the bckground. I have it, so this is from experience.

i know the first roller coaster tycoon it was able to do that but damnn

isnt there a separate program that allows this? (ik there are some that allows you to scroll through pages on different windows without actually having to click the window) so maybe there is a program that keeps the game selected while allowing us to do other activities ,,,, i really dont have space on my desk for another monitor and i really dont wanna rack up $$$ only when im sleeping hahah

RCT3 is really a mess of a game. It has a lot of issues that you will find the more you play it. Also due to Atari being massive turds they spent most of their time trying to stop being moding the game or doing anything to it that wasn't an official release. They eventually gave up on enforcing most of it but by that time people had given up on certain things, so there is not really any external programs that run with it. As far as I am aware the on things that have been done as custom scenery, tracked rides, flat rides stalls and tracks.

I have this game, but I've never tried that. If you want to use a browser though, maybe you could add it to your steam library and use the overlay?

 

I could try and test this myself
