PauseOnLoad
Automatically pauses the game shortly after your world finishes loading.
Helps keep your character safe from enemies if your last save was in a dangerous area and you want to go AFK or tab out during the loading screen.
Features
- Auto-Pause: Opens the ESC menu shortly after your character spawns in.
- Smart Detection: Only pauses on initial world load. It won't interrupt you during portals or other loading screens.
- Single-Player Focused: Automatically disables itself when joining multiplayer servers.
- Configurable: Easily tweak the pause delay or toggle the mod on/off.
Configuration
BepInEx/config/ArchUmbra.PauseOnLoad.cfg:
| Setting | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
Enabled |
true | Set to false to disable auto-pausing. |
PauseDelay |
1.0 | Delay in seconds before opening the menu once you spawn in the world (0.0 to 30.0). |
Compatibility
Designed to be lightweight and compatible with everything. This mod doesn't modify any core gameplay mechanics. It just checks for when the player character has spawned in the world and opens the ESC menu after a delay.
Recommended Mods
This mod pairs well with QuickLaunch by Landoria for a fully AFK-safe automatic startup. If you use a lot of mods that take a long time to load, you can click launch, go do something else, and come back to a world that is loaded, paused, and ready whenever you are.
