Until now only the editor toolbar could pause a running game. A pause
menu inside the game had no way to stop the world while its own graph
kept running, and there was no slow motion.
- Five new nodes: Pause game, Resume game, Is game paused, Set time
scale and Time scale. Pause and resume take effect on the next frame.
- A game pause stops world time, physics, animations, particles and
shader time. Only behaviors with the new "Run while paused" switch
keep running.
- Set time scale 0 freezes the world but graphs keep running, as
agreed in the issue.
- Play and Stop reset the time scale to 1, Load scene keeps it. The
pause belongs to the scene, so Load scene and Restart unpause.
- The toolbar pause stays separate and also freezes the menu. When the
game pauses itself the status line reads "The game paused itself".
- While paused, collision events are not reported, sounds keep
playing, and the editor run ignores both nodes with a log line.
Findings:
- The first status line was longer than any before and got cut with
an ellipsis. It is shorter now.
- The e2e harness did not know the key "p". It does now.
Tests:
- ./check.sh: 133 files, 1968 tests, exit 0 (before 132 / 1952)
- npm run build: exit 0
- GM_STEPS=18 fresh: ALL PASSED, 33 checks (before 26)
- 16 new unit tests: 8 catalog cases, game-pause.test.ts, editor run
- 7 new e2e checks in block 18i, driven by real keys in the game
- Six counter-checks all bite: behavior filter, collision lock, world
time, editor run, clock reset and the game clock in the browser
- Check total 1217 in README is computed (1210 + 7), CI measures it
