I’m curious which parts of the client interface will reset the idle timeout. Like if I switch around between the Skills tab and Inventory, does that reset the timer? Or do I need to click to walk around? Or click trees to execute on actions? I’m particularly frustrated that I keep getting logged out when I’m cutting Yew trees, which I recognize is a very idle-heavy skill.
if youre a skiller youre out of luck, if you have defence a monster attacking you will do the trick
I see it differently; skillers are much more impressive because they have to deal with 2004 mechanics

Generally moving your mouse will keep you logged in. I just sort of -always- fiddle around with my inventory or just absent-mindedly move my mouse without clicking things.
However, I did just get auto-logged as I typed the previous paragraph

Mousing over the client resets the logout timer. The client doesn’t even need to be focused. This is probably not authentic - I’m guessing it required a left/right click or keyboard input in actual 2004.

Mouse movement over the client (must be focused) and any keystrokes or clicks in the client will reset the 90s timer.
If I’m AFKing yews, I usually have YT up on second monitor, refocus the game client on first monitor and move the mouse in circles every few seconds.

I’ve got a similar setup – OSRS takes over the entire left side of my monitor, and then on the right side I split the screen into 2004scape and YouTube/Discord/etc.
I’ll try wandering my mouse over the client every once in a while to see if that helps - thanks everyone!
The logout timer is 90s, and the client does not need to be focused. Just mouse over it and it will reset the logout timer.
Yea I meant 90s, not sure why I typed 45. (edited it correct)
As far as it being focused or not, I was just going off of what Pazaz has stated in the past. Perhaps the intention is for it to be focused, even if it works unfocused.
