Just wondering, is it possible to pause everything including particles whenever you pause a match? The problem I'm having is when you pause a match, any particles(hit effects, projectile) in the scene continue to play to their end while leaving their hitbox in place. When you resume the hitbox still hits though.

Try using
Time.timeScale = 0;But make sure you have "Use FixedUpdate for Inputs" disabled under Global -> Advanced Options.
Thank you Mistermind, will try.

I've tried this with my project, and it does indeed freeze my projectiles & particles, but when the game is paused I can't adjust the pause menu without using my mouse. Is there a fix for this? Would be greatly appreciated.

Im having the same issues, did you ever figure out how to get input working right on pause?
Share
You may want to cherry pick what you want to pause and make a script to handle that.
It's what I did.
I just checked when UFE.IsPaused() is true
then did what I needed from there
Share
Actually, could you share the script please? Might save time reinventing the wheel

This one pauses particles
using UnityEngine;
public class UFE_2PauseParticlesHandlerScript : MonoBehaviour
{
public ParticleSystem myParticleSystem;
// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{
switch (UFE.isPaused())
{
case true:
myParticleSystem.Pause(true);
break;
case false:
switch (myParticleSystem.isPlaying)
{
case false:
myParticleSystem.Pause(false);
myParticleSystem.Play(true);
break;
}
break;
}
}
}Share

Where do you place this script? And each particle?
This one pauses particles
using UnityEngine; public class UFE_2PauseParticlesHandlerScript : MonoBehaviour { public ParticleSystem myParticleSystem; // Update is called once per frame void Update() { switch (UFE.isPaused()) { case true: myParticleSystem.Pause(true); break; case false: switch (myParticleSystem.isPlaying) { case false: myParticleSystem.Pause(false); myParticleSystem.Play(true); break; } break; } } }

I don't recommend using that script it's very old.
I made some new scripts to deal with that.
This is a scriptable object you need to create one and assign it to the correct field when using the script below.
using UnityEngine;
namespace FreedTerror
{
[CreateAssetMenu(fileName = "New GameObject Info", menuName = "FreedTerror/U.F.E. 2 F.T.E./GameObject/GameObject Info", order = 1)]
public class UFE2FTEGameObjectInfo : ScriptableObject
{
public enum OrderInLayerMode
{
None,
Infront,
Behind,
Custom
}
public OrderInLayerMode orderInLayerMode;
public int orderInLayerInfront;
public int orderInLayerBehind;
public int orderInLayerCustom;
}
}Place this script on a GameObject or Prefab it's a very nice utility script to cover various situations you may encounter.

@FreedTerror. Can I put this is a character's prefab? I just have too many particles to put this script in each and every one of them.
Share
Place the script on the root prefab.
The script will get all child particle systems.
