Developed and delivered the Pause-State Screensaver Management feature for the OpenTTD/OpenTTD repository, enabling the game to synchronize the computer’s sleep and screensaver behavior with its pause state. This enhancement allowed the system to enter sleep mode during paused gameplay, reducing manual intervention and optimizing energy usage for players during extended sessions. The implementation required integration with platform idle-state APIs and careful handling of pause-state events within a C++ codebase, ensuring reliable cross-platform behavior. Demonstrated skills in game development and software engineering, with a focus on version control best practices and robust event-driven programming to improve user experience and system efficiency.
December 2025 (OpenTTD/OpenTTD) — Key feature delivered: Pause-State Screensaver Management, enabling the computer to sleep while the game is paused to maintain uninterrupted gameplay and optimize energy use. The change aligns screensaver/sleep behavior with the game's pause state and reduces manual work for players during long sessions. Commit c918a29e4960c1081a67ed5889e942ee9761f420 addresses Fix #12937. Impact: improved user experience and reliability during paused gameplay, better energy management, and smoother cross-platform behavior. Technologies/skills demonstrated: platform idle-state handling, pause-state event integration, C/C++ codebase changes, and rigorous version-control workflow.
