CalCiv does not go to sleep when minimized.

from Stardock Forums
The debug file builds rapidly and runs out of control when GalCiv is minimized. The following
lines are repeated as fast as GalCiv can write them:
---------
Debug Message: Surface Lost. Now restoring.
Debug Message: Trying to restore back surface.
Debug Message: DirectDraw Error: WRONG MODE
Debug Message: Lock: Unable to restore surface.
---------

The debug file will be attached to a group thread.

Cheers,
Jack

That will do the trick. We can look in Pear and take those out.

Pear is the code library that we are building the galciv engine on.

This is still happening. One of these days one of us is going to get creamed by it.

Ok, I #ifdefed out the reports so that they won't appear in builds that we define as being release builds (because they're really still compiled in debug mode for now)

OK.
