When the current time has reached the resume time, resumption is instructed to the computer managing unit.

  When an instruction to resume a game is received after an interruption of the game, the resumption control unit (206) resumes the game at a time preceding the interrupted in-game time by a predetermined period.

When detecting a termination of the particular event, the OS sends a resumption command to the navigation control module, thereby resuming the navigation control module.

The external controller similarly has the ability to issue a manual resume command, which can be provided on the communication path when that path has a ready status.
