📋 About This Mod
Custom keybind to pause the game without going into menus. Will pause everything completely (time, NPCs, audio, dialogue, etc) but you can still move around and do stuff.
You need to set a keybind for the mod in CET's menu. The keybind works like a toggle, press to pause, press again to unpause.

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 428 endorsements and 18,557 downloads.
- Simple and effective: one keybind to freeze the world, no menu hassle.
- Lets you move and interact while paused, perfect for tactical planning.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in October 2023 — may not work with the latest game patches.
- Only one keybind; no options to customize what gets paused.
For players who want a true pause button without menu interruptions, especially for screenshotting, planning moves, or taking a breather mid-combat. Skip if you prefer the game's existing pause mechanics or want more granular control over what freezes.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Check if your game version is compatible with the mod's last update (October 2023) before installing.
- Set the keybind to something you won't accidentally press, like P or F8.
- Test the pause in a safe area first to see how it interacts with dialogue and cutscenes.
