Dear players,
As you know, players using Chrome to play the game are experiencing game freezes when switching tabs in their browser.
We are aware of the issue and these are the known facts so far:
- The freezing is caused by Chrome itself
- Other Flash based browser games are facing exactly the same issue
We can suggest the following, as a workaround:
- Use the zoom function of the browser (via menu, or CTRL+Wheel)
- Resize the window (These two workarounds will revalidate the whole page, which will also "unfreeze" the game)
- Try another browser
US Moderators noticed that disabling the browser feature called "Background Tabs Throttling" solves the issue with the game freezing when using multiple tabs. You can also give this a try.
To disable this feature, you may follow this tutorial:

Instructions for Google Chrome Web Browser:
1. Open Google Chrome web browser and type chrome://flags/ in addressbar and press Enter. It'll open the advanced configuration page.
2. Now press "Ctrl+F" keys together to launch find box and type throttling in the find box.
It'll directly go to following option:
Throttle expensive background timers Mac, Windows, Linux, Chrome OS, Android
Enables intervention to limit CPU usage of background timers to 1%. #expensive-background-timer-throttling
3. If you want to disable this new feature, select Disabled option from the drop-down box. If you want to enable this feature, select Enabled option from the drop-down box.
4. Click on "Relaunch Now" button and it'll restart Google Chrome web browser.
Instructions for Opera Web Browser:
1. Launch Opera web browser and open its hidden secret advanced configuration page using opera://flags command in addressbar.
2. Now click inside "Search experiments" text box and type throttling. It'll show following options in the result:
Background tab throttling Mac, Windows, Linux
Throttle timers in background tabs. #background-tab-throttling
Throttle expensive background timers Mac, Windows, Linux
Enables intervention to limit CPU usage of background timers to 1%. #expensive-background-timer-throttling
3. If you want to disable background tabs throttling feature, select Disabled option from the drop-down box of both options. If you want to enable this feature, select Enabled option from the drop-down box of both options.
4. Opera will show you a message "Your changes will take effect the next time you relaunch Opera" along with a button to relaunch Opera. Click on the "Relaunch Now" button to restart Opera web browser.
That's it. With the help of the above mentioned steps, you'll be able to turn on/off background tabs throttling feature in Google Chrome and Opera web browsers.
PS: You can also disable background tabs throttling feature in Google Chrome and Opera web browsers by appending --disable-background-timer-throttling parameter at the end of the string present in Target text box of their shortcut's properties.
