Silensing the game when it's not in focus

Most games sound is on mute when you Alt-Tab to another application, but OXC does not. It's a good idea to follow the standard practice.

Some turns can take many  minutes, so I play other games while waiting. Would be very nice for this to be an option, unless difficult to implement.

The game also slows down significantly, when you tab out... that's why it takes minutes... if you don't tab out, it will take much less.

Don't know if this is new or not, but it has that option in the latest versions of oxc and oxce.
under the audio tab is: background mute.
