Is my full screen mode working properly?

    Quick question regarding the game's performance in fullscreen mode. When I am in fullscreen mode, not windowed or borderless windowed, the game behaves exactly as if it is in borderless windowed. I can click on another window on another monitor, and do stuff there, without the screen flashing black and the game being minimized to the taskbar, like most other games do when in fullscreen mode. I only ask, because I'm not sure if the game will still be monopolizing the GPU if it is behaving like it is. I'm not sure if this is a feature related to torque, or if this is a bug, or if this is intentional. I have cleared the cache, this has been happening across multiple versions of the game, and I have done clean installs but this behavior still occurs.

    Anyways, I have a video to better illustrate my question.

    The BeamNG window will only flash and go back to windowed mode if the other application that you're trying to access is also displayed on the same screen as BeamNG.

    BeamNG will still be utilising system resources until it is minimised.
