Pause everything on tab switch

Phaser 3

Hey, is it possible to pause everything that is running in the background when I switch between tabs? I found out that the time clock is still running when I am not currently in the tab.

Use the game events BLUR, FOCUS, HIDDEN, and VISIBLE to respond to these changes.

What’s the difference between BLUR and HIDDEN?

I think you want HIDDEN/VISIBLE.

BLUR includes some other ways of moving focus while keeping a tab open, if I remember correctly.
