well i was wondering (and did not find anything in search) what happens when someone uses the "release controls" button

im fiddling with a game idea, and if i click that button it obviously get stuck in the "play" state

is there a way to detect this, or am i going to have to keep up with a timer event so the game will reset if someone walks away

I believe there may NOT be a way to detect this from a script. I'm pretty sure the script doesn't lose permissions or anything.

It won't fire run_time_permissions, but you can use a timer to check the permissions mask and key
