SmartPause

Finally take a real break without worrying about your base being raided or your character dying. SmartPause introduces an intelligent pausing system that lets you step away from your screen without without returning to a corpse, a raid, or several avoidable workplace incidents. Features True AFK Pausing: Open any enabled menu to completely pause the single-player world. By default, the ESC menu is enabled, letting you step away with everything safely frozen in time. Configurable Menu Pausing: Choose whether the Inventory, Party, Technology, Palpedia, Missions, and Guild pages pause the game. Leave them disabled to keep crafting, incubation, and base automation running while you browse. Combat-Aware Logic: By default, active combat or alerted enemies prevent pausing. A native warning banner lets you know why, and the game pauses automatically once the danger has passed. Combat pausing can also be enabled in the config. Configurable Combat Warnings: Choose whether the warning appears once or repeats at a real-time interval while a supported menu remains open. Stable and Lightweight: SmartPause efficiently detects supported menus, handles Palworld rebuilding its UI, and avoids brief unpauses during menu transitions. Notes Multiplayer: This mod does not currently work in Multiplayer, it is specifically disabled for servers. Config file: The config file can be found here: "steamapps\common\Palworld\Mods\NativeMods\UE4SS\Mods\SmartPause\Scripts\config.lua" This is where you can change which menus can pause the game, and whether or not combat disables pausing. Important: Please ensure that you save the config file after making changes or they will not apply Found a bug/Mod not working?: If you have encountered a bug, or the mod is otherwise not working as you expect, leave a comment in the comments section down below, or post in the Bug Report Discussion thread.
