Should the project automatically unpause when the user comes back to the tab?

Guys, this addon has bigger problems than the wrong name. It doesn't work in first place.

Try adding

if (addon.settings.get("auto-pause")) document.addEventListener("focusout", setPaused(true));

above the settings change event listener.

@Samq64 You meant () => setPaused(true) instead of just setPaused(true)

Yeah, thanks for catching that.

What's the difference?

Should the project automatically resume when the setting is dynamically disabled?

No. That would only add extra complication. And if the user manually pauses and then disables the setting, the project would resume, even if it shouldn't.

@DNin01 your review adds a new perspective I didn't think about. Maybe we should add an option to prevent pause for projects with cloud variables, maybe even mitigations for the addon itself (not just this option)?

Indeed, we could consider entirely disabling the pause function on these types of projects.

I wouldn't say disabling though. People with the knowledge could still bypass the restriction (via devtools). Maybe we should add a "Allow pausing on projects with cloud variables" setting and mark it as Dangerous?

Whaddya say we just don't auto-pause if cloud data activity (send/receive) occurred on the cloud WebSocket connection in the last 15 seconds? That should mitigate most of the issues potentially introduced by pausing those projects.

Sounds good, maybe also add a notice in the settings.

Done in #8555.
