Introduction

• This is a simple plugin that adds a pause scene with a background image of your choice when you press a button on Scene_Map.

Features

• Pause the game pressing a button when you are at the scene map(This also stops the $gameSystem.playTime()).
• Choose an image to show when the game is paused.
• It saves the current playTime(Graphics.frameCount/$gameSystem.playTime()) before you pause, and restore it after you leave the pause scene.

How to use

• You can choose an image from your system folder. Make sure it is the size of your game resolution. You can also not use any image.

• Check out this site to find your desired javascript keycode:
https://keycode.info/

To pause the game you can press the keyboard button you choose or the button on the screen.
To unpause the game, you can either press the keyboard button again or click/touch the screen.

The image of the on-screen button has to be a specific format that follows this aspect ratio:
Width: 1
Height: 2
Ex:
Width: 48
Height: 96

You can use the plugin command to pause the game manually too.

You can check if the button is pressed using "pause".
Input.isTriggered("pause")
Input.isPressed("pause")
etc...

Do you mean, that wants the pause scene to work only in Battle? And not in the map?

I should realize that error was produced by a outdated version of MZ so that's why it pop up like that
