Summary

0004432: Doomseeker sort does not function while window is not in focus

Description

If you have the Doomseeker window open while the server list is updating or populating but it is NOT in focus, it will fail to sort based on your selection at the top of the window until you click back to it and bring it back in focus. This has been true for me since first using it in Windows 5 years ago and I thought it was just a quirk of the update process, but it actually does update the servers in real time when not in focus, just doesn't sort them so many don't come to the top like they should.

Steps To Reproduce

Open Doomseeker or click the update button, then click any other window while keeping Doomseeker on screen.

Notes
(0024093) Zalewa (developer) 2024-10-25 16:50	This is on purpose and has been so since (almost) day one. The computer I had back then didn't perform very well when I was running a game and Doomseeker was doing the sorting in the background. The game would stutter. I have a much better computer now, but I've never changed this, because others may not.
