Also affects when the player sleeps. The game will put you into the sleeping screen but if the player unfocuses the window while the sleeping screen is open, the game will not be paused upon the player finishing sleeping and back into the world.
This also occurs when you're inside any containers or chat screen, if your game window is unfocused while in those screens, when you takes damages the game will resumes in the background.
Thank you for your report!
