Here's an example: http://orteil.dashnet.org/cookieclicker/ http://orteil.dashnet.org/cookieclicker/
Opening another tab creates a new bakery, not a view into the same bakery. (This only works if you haven't played before or clear your cookies.)
Edit:
If you really want to keep the same functionality then you would need to bring server communication into the mix. It's possible to either run the simulation server-side, or at least communicate the state between tabs using a server.
If you send an email in one Gmail window and it shows up in the other window, then I would guess it receives a message from the server to update.
- TeMPOraL 10y agoThe point still being, with this change you can have only one tab doing server communication at "full throttle", which may kill whatever gameplay elements make the players open this game in multiple tabs.
- xigency 10y agoI'm not sure on the Chrome implementation, but I think all of the visible tabs would be foreground, not background. So the issue would be refreshing when changing tabs. (And also communicating between visible tabs).
- syrrim 10y agoThe last time I played, opening a new tab would create a view into the same bakery, but it each tab diverged based on RNG. This allows you to cheat by, for example, taking multiple risk free chances at wrinkler drops.
