Because, when I alt-tab, I don't like going back and seeing that I've fallen through the ground into water, and now I have 8 hp instead of 100.

hey, a friend of mine says this happens to them. I have never had this problem before. maybe something with the map has to do with it

It's not the map. It's just based on Operating System (as far as I can tell). On Windows XP (Running in a Virtual Machine), this doesn't happen. Sometimes (rarely), I lose some HP. On Windows 7, I always lose HP. If I'm standing on a platform, and you can stand beneath it (even if it's several blocks deep), I fall down onto the surface below.

Or better, add windowed mode and a pause menu.

I'm running windows 7, and this never happens to me. my friend(it happens to them) is using windows 7, though, so I am really not sure how this problem happens. But yeah, a windowed mode would be nice, I think I'd use it

What resolution is your monitor and what resolution do you play at?

My monitor is 1920x1080 and the game only supports up to 1680x1050.

Game just d/cs from server for me now in Win7 alt-tab.

Works fine here.

Probably just your crap computer :P

my monitor is 1440x900, I play with 1024x768(something around there), the other resolutions do not really work very well, or are too small. my friend also uses 1024x768, but I'm not sure what their monitor resolution is

Sorry Jackster, as much as you want to be a try-hard troll, my computer isn't crap. Keep trying though, mabye you'll learn how to troll one day.

I think it's mostly an issue with higher resolution, as on my VM, it is 1024x768.

I think jackster needs to pull his head out of his ass, but i doubt he can considering he likes deadmau5.

it's based on your computer, and lagging while alt-tabbing.

Maybe it is, but jackster needs to lose his ego.

Yeah the lag is created when re-drawing from 1680x1050 resolution to 1920x1080 and windows 7 aero. Probably doesn't help that I constantly have atleast Photoshop CS5, iTunes, and Visual Studio 2010 Professional running.

I've yet to experience this. I've heard many people complain about this though. I've tried it on Windows XP, Vista, 7 and Ubuntu 11.04, all in both physical machines and virtual machines.
