Offline progress
Closing the game does not freeze the party. Progress continues with a cap. Ultimates do not fire while you are away.

The sourced answer
The stuck 'Calculating offline progress' screen is a community troubleshooting thread, not a formula. The steps people repeat are restart, switch party, wait, or force-quit. A 24 October 2025 write-up on Tap Guides says offline progress slows and that the cap depends on the party. That is a second-hand article. I cite it as a supplement and I do not turn it into an official hour count.
I have no official formula for the cap, so the page has no percent and no hour number. Switching party is the step that shows up when a restart is not enough. A stuck calculator on party three does not tell you what party one earned.
FAQ
Do ultimates fire offline?
The public notes say they do not.
What if the calculating screen sticks?
Restart, switch party, wait, or force-quit. Those are the community steps, not a support-script.
