Pause

June 30, 2008 4:12:05 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums
Ok, how does one PAUSE the game?  I mean, sometimes I gotta go to the bathroom, or take a phone call, etc... I haven't been able to figure it out.  I've looked in the manual, and can't seem to find it there either.  Pressing the "P" key or "esc" does not work.  Could someone enlighten me?  Thanks!

Bring up the menu with the F10 key and you'll pause a singleplayer game. Can't remember if it's possible to pause a multi game.

Press the Pause/Break key. You can pause in MP, but you only get so many pauses per game there.

As Kyro said, press 'pause'

I use this all over the place in the single player campaign. When you're playing against multiple hard AIs, all teamed up against you, you will often be fighting simultaneous battles on multiple fronts, where you're outnumbered in each battle. In these scenarios I defy anyone to effectively micromanage the battles for victory without utilising the pause function!
