Re: Suspend worker thread when in background

You could use https://wiki.libsdl.org/SDL_CondWait in the worker threads 
and signal the condition variable on SDL_APP_WILLENTERFOREGROUND event 
so the worker threads continue running.
(Probably only call SDL_CondWait() if some global bool variable you set 
on WILLENTERBACKGROUND is true - remember to set it back to false on 
WILLENTERFOREGROUND)

Cheers,
Daniel
