Multiplayer pause option

[Rockster]

Title says it a pause option for multiplayer because you may need to eat dinner if you are in a online game and as you play friendly (so against friends) you could pause the game for some while and go later on with the game if you are done with eating or something like that it would be nice for the server admin or in console as command

I think that Krom and Lewin have settled on using the return to lobby function as the means to pause mutiplayer games.

Hmmmm but I think it is faster to pause the game ingame because you dont have to load up the savefile again because you let it open

I, personally, agree, but Krom didn't like any ideas for pausing in game. If I recall correctly, he liked most the option to have a "vote to pause." We effectively already have that with the lobby feature, so that of course will not get implemented.

Yah because I know some people that don't have 100Mbit up and down the can't get 1MB/s so yah I think it was a nope idea for to enter the lobby again it is also annoying if you are only go to the toilet and than reconnect all the stuff again if you are only 2 minutes away max.

Yeah, "vote to pause" sounds fair to me

Or an admin choose to pause button something like in the single player modus with the F's
