Pausing the simulation

by Gerald Fishel · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 12/24/2008 (6:02 pm) · 2 replies

Hi all,

I'm wondering if there is an easy way to pause the simulation while maintaining the ability to interact with the GUI.

Basically I want to implement a character management GUI that the user can enter and manipulate things, while everything related to the game simulation is frozen.

Is there an easy way to handle this implemented already, or is it something I will have to do myself?

Thanks,
Gerald

$timescale=0

Or you can look at this. Take a look at what Tom Feni did to use it with a keybind and apply that when using certain GUIs.

Thank you sir. I was hoping there would be something that simple :D
