📋 About This Mod
There's so many lovely places in Stardew Valley with great ambience. I wanted to enjoy these places without worrying that I was wasting time. This mod aims to address this by automatically pausing time while the player is sitting.
Works in multiplayer! Currently time will pause if any of the players are sitting. A future version of this mod will have a config option for that.
Source on Github!

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 183 endorsements and 2,875 downloads.
- Perfect for roleplayers and explorers who want to soak in the world without time pressure.
- Lightweight and unobtrusive—doesn't change combat or other mechanics.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in March 2021—may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim version or the Anniversary Edition.
- Only affects sitting, so it's a niche feature that might not appeal to everyone.
For Skyrim players who love immersive roleplay and want to take a breather without the game clock ticking away. Also great for screenshot enthusiasts who want to capture the perfect moment without time pressure. Skip if you're looking for major gameplay overhauls—this is a tiny quality-of-life tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since the mod is from 2021, check if you're using Skyrim Special Edition or the Anniversary Edition—if you're on the latter, you might need to test if it works or look for a patch.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2, just drop the mod in and enable it—no extra steps needed.
- Try sitting on a bench or chair in a city to see the effect immediately; if time doesn't pause, the mod might be incompatible with your setup.
