I believed in that one for some reason, but no.
UPDATE: If anyone wants to help, please
download the demo, and try 1/ via the steam launcher 2/ via RH.exe. The world generation ("Generate hope") should take about 4 seconds via Steam, and be instant via RH.exe. If not, please report!

I was hoping too...
Still belive, that the steam launcher somehow affects the os events. (It's a guess, and may be wrong assumption.)
Edit: What if you iterate trough all of the pending events in a loop? Is it possible in your code?

Your event loop is wrong ...
If you use an OpenWindowedScreen, the event loop must look different.
See PB-Help
Code: Select all
...
Repeat
; It's very important to process all the events remaining in the queue at each frame
;
Repeat
Event = WindowEvent()
Select Event
Case #PB_Event_Gadget
Case #PB_Event_CloseWindow
Break 2
EndSelect
Until Event = 0
...
Forever

He uses canvas, I'm not particularly familiar with it. So no screen as far as I know.
