 Posted: Sat Dec 27, 2014 5:31 am Post subject: Paused or in-game sleep function |
 |
|
Hello,
I was wandering if it is possible to detect when a game is paused (menu etc not speed hack paused). I'm trying to create a regeneration script into my table, but the problem is that the script keeps working when the game it pause.
Even better, if it possible to find the in-game sleep function. I assume something like that has got to exist, but I don't have a clue how to locate it. Any advice - pointer is welcome.
Thanks in advance.

You could try finding a boolean value that is true when paused and false otherwise,or vice-versa,in other words,a value that is either 1 or 0,and that changes when the 'paused' state changes.
Then from your script,check if the game is paused(compare that value with 1 or 0,and take appropriate actions).

You could scan for referenced strings,and look for some strings that are in the pause menu,then analyse the code a bit to find the start of the pause function,this does not always work.

I just tested it, and it works fine!
Really straight forward and simple, I couldn't hope for a better answer. I wander why I didn't think of that ...

I didn't find the sleep function, but I did find a value that get scaled with the game speed, so now I can scale my sleep time and call the windows kernelbase.sleep.
Thanks, you've been very helpful!
