Ticker Timing and Tab Visibility The PixiJS Ticker utilizes requestAnimationFrame to manage the update loop, calculating a delta value to ensure frame-rate independent movement. This mechanism relies on the browser's high-resolution timestamp to maintain synchronization between logic updates and rendering. A specific challenge arises when the browser tab is
