GTFOPause

Pause GTFO the way Risk of Rain 2 does.

• Solo (you plus bots): the game freezes while the Esc menu is open. F8 pauses without opening the menu.
• Multiplayer: any player can press F8 to pause the whole squad, and any player can press it again to resume. Everyone sees who paused. The host can turn this off with AllowMultiplayerPause.

While the game is paused, enemies, bots, timers, reactor countdowns, alarms and the expedition timer all stop. Game audio freezes and picks up where it left off. Voice chat keeps working.

Multiplayer

• Every human player needs GTFOPause. If anyone is missing it, the pause is refused and the game names who.
• The pause ends on its own when a player joins or leaves, the host changes, or the level ends.
• If a client loses contact with the host while paused, it resumes after a few seconds.

Config

BepInEx/config/mrwave.GTFOPause.cfg (or the r2modman config editor):

Notes

• While paused outside the menu you can't move, look or shoot. Esc and chat still work.
• Menu sounds are silent during a pause, because all game audio is suspended.

Changelog

0.1.1

• The Esc menu no longer pauses by default: F8 is the pause. Set PauseOnMenu to true to get the old behaviour back. Config files from 0.1.0 keep their saved value, so change it there to get the new default.
• Press-and-hold menu buttons such as Retire to Lobby work while paused. Leaving the expedition from a paused menu resumes the game first.

0.1.0

• Solo: the Esc menu pauses the game, and the hotkey (F8) toggles a pause without the menu.
• Multiplayer: any player with the mod can pause the whole squad. On by default; the host can turn it off.
• Game audio freezes during a pause and picks up where it stopped.
