Event for On Pause

Hi Chris

Is there an EventManager event that will fire when the game is paused? That is, I have menus that have Pause Game ticked, and I want to know when that pauses the game for my own script.

Currently I'm checking for the name of the Menu that is being shown, but I'd prefer to just trigger against the game being paused.

I can't see an OnPause, or anything Time related (other than Timers).

    Not in the Event Manager, as pausing the game affects the way ActionLists are played back. However, it is possible through script using the OnEnterGameState event:

    using UnityEngine;
using AC;

public class PauseGameEvent : MonoBehaviour
{

    void OnEnable () { EventManager.OnEnterGameState += OnEnterGameState; }
    void OnDisable () { EventManager.OnEnterGameState -= OnEnterGameState; }

    void OnEnterGameState (GameState gameState)
    {
        if (gameState == GameState.Paused)
        {
            Debug.Log ("Game is paused");
            //
        }
    }

}

    Perfect. Thanks. That'll help no end.
