pausegame on/off

[Superbeni]

If I have a button to pause/unpause the game and I pause it, i can´t unpause it.

How does it works?

[DST]

Create an actor variable for the pause (ispaused), and a timer for the pausebutton:
Then button>mousebuttondown>

Code: Select all

switch(ispaused){
    case 0:
     ispaused=1;
     animpos=1;
     CreateTimer("Event Actor", "1", 50);
    break;
 
    case 1:
PauseGameOff();
ispaused=0;
animpos=0;
break;
                }

Then on the timer>

Code: Select all

PauseGameOn();

The timer allows you to run other events before the pause happens, such as a strcpy to a text actor "press p to unpause" in case they have any problems clicking on it again (like if you're using a custom cursor or whatnot).

Note: this works in GE 1.39. Not sure about other versions.
