Pause game on Start doesn't quite work
Trying to pause a game as it starts to wait for some user interaction on the GUI.
Using time.TimeScale = 0.0f; in the Start() function. However it still processes the FixedUpdate() function once.
Using the logs I can clearly show the timescale is altered before the fixed update runs but yet it still runs once.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class TestPause : MonoBehaviour {
void Start () {
Time.timeScale = 0.0f;
Debug.Log("Paused");
}
void FixedUpdate () {
Debug.Log("Updated");
}
}
What am I doing wrong?
It's could be a safeguard built-in to unity.
Coroutine's still run when the timeScale is 0, so make sure you know how to unpause the game.
Try this script, and change isPaused value to true when the user finish its interaction on the GUI:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class TestPause : MonoBehaviour {
bool isPaused;
void Start () {
Time.timeScale = 0.0f;
isPaused = true;
Debug.Log("Paused");
}
void FixedUpdate () {
if(!isPaused){
Debug.Log("Updated");
}
}
}
