    Issue: Background Empyrion window (non-focused) still reads mouse and keyboard input.

    Steps to reproduce: Launch the game in windowed mode, put the window in the background/un-focus the window by hitting Alt-Tab, or other means. Mouse-over the game window, and the game reads the input, even if other windows are in front of it.

    Hey, devs. This is standard Windows Programming Etiquette. A window that does not have focus should NOT read input. Period, end of story. In fact, this is true on any GUI desktop, and has been for literally decades.

    Please fix this. :)

    Thank you!
