    I am extremely grateful that I stumbled across this today! 😍I've been struggling for WEEKS trying to get a pause menu, map AND inventory widget working! 🤩🤩
    Thank you so much for a very simple and straightfoward approach! 🥰

    Ive watched 3 other videos on how to do this. Each one was a little different and all 3 led to the same issue. Once I clicked resume, my mouse cursor would remain on screen no matter what I did. Your method has been the only one to work, thank you so much!

    Good video. However, there is an error condition. If you don't use P to resume the next time in game, it wont pause. the fix: Replace the flipflop with a branch node. connect true to "Remove from Parent" node connect false to "Create Pause Menu Widget". right click search "Is game paused" connect to condition of branch.
    @Buvesa Game Development Can you make a screen that shows the landscape that you can scroll around and zoom in and out?

      I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do this if I don't want the game paused.
      I have a menu open but I don't set the game's state to pause as I don't want the player 'stopping time'.
      I would reeeeeeeally appreciate it if anyone could help me figure out how to check if the menu is open instead of if the game's paused!

    The flip flop is just wrong. I can hear you hitting that P key twice after you exit. Would be nice if this was a working tutorial without that major flaw.

    How do i make it so when I click the pause button again it unpauses the game? For example im using the ESC key, if I click it a second time I want the pause menu to go away, almost like an on and off button.

    • @BuvesaGameDevelopment
      @BuvesaGameDevelopment  Год назад +1

      Yup: drag in an image (where you find text, button, boxes, ...). Scale it full screen and drag it on top position of the canvas panel hierarchy.

    I followed this tutorial all the way through and have everything set up correctly, but the game will only pause. When I use the same button again the pause menu stays, this prompted me to create my own set up to integrate my settings close button into the same workflow but I am still forced to click the close button instead of being able to press the pause button again.

    So for anybody who has the issue of the pause key not working after you press continue and then you follow the branch node advice from jlawson1172 and then you had the issue of not being to hit pause key again while IN the menu add another InpuctActionPause node and connect the pressed link to the remove from parent link.

      you have to set the map as your default map in the project settings. and also it wont work if you have set any gamemode overrides in a specific level that you are currently in.

    It seems in 5.1 you have to add a "Canvas Panel" first!
