How to stop auto-pausing?

[cenkiss]

I was playing a spectator game where you just select an unimportant nation and just watch how the world shapes.I left the game open.When i came back it has passed only 1 year in game instead of 100 because the game auto-paused for some two nations' trade deal.I want to disable auto-pausing.

Never heard of that before!

Well,i found that you can choose which events will make it auto-pause from the message settings of the game menu.

In most paradox titles you can simply right lick a message to change its settings.

In the game menu (press esc) go to message settings. All the possible events are listed there and you can set whether they give you a pop-up, pause the game, etc. Just organise the list in order of what pauses the game and what doesn't then just go down the list turning off the auto-pause option for all the events.

That way, nothing should make the game pause.
