Hi,
It depends on what you are using, but most things will pause when you set "Scale Time" to 0

So you could use the action "Get Key Down" and select 'escape' key

on the Next state use "Scale Time and Set to 0

I just saw that playmaker is supported so maybe you can send events within Adventure Creator to set the time scale.

I do not have the asset so i can't test, sorry.

But you can also contact the author for the issue or maybe there are some tutorials on their website?

let's forget for a while about AC
I have scene with two FSM (take a look for a screenshot)
When I pause FSM 1 is still working - what I'm doing wrong?

Hi,
Realtime should be unchecked

Realtime will not change when using timescale

If you would place timescale to 0.2, everything would slow down except the ones using realtime.
they would stay at normal speed
