This mod allows you to PAUSE the raid in progress, giving you time to take care of real life!
This mod will pause the following:
- You
- Character movement
- Health
- Hydration and Energy
- Stamina
- AI
- Time of day
- Raid Timer will read “PAUSED”
Default keybinding is F9, but can be changed in the F12 BepInEx menu.
Possible Bugs, Conflicts, and Unexpected Behaviors:
Note: These may be due to issues with EFT code, and not the fault of SPT or this mod. There’s no guarantee that these can be fixed in future updates!
Note: None of the below have been reported as wide spread issues. I have been unable to replicate any of them:
- Pausing with less than 10 minutes on Lighthouse does not stop the timers in the background. Resuming the game will show you have lost time, potentially resulting in an early MIA.
- Adding extra time to raids using SVM or Raid Overhaul can interfere with pausing raid timers, potentially resulting in an early MIA.
- Pausing the game, pressing ESC to access the menus and then back into the game can stop the player from being able to loot and damage enemies when resumed.
- Pausing the game, pressing alt-tab to another window, returning to the game and resuming can stop the player from being to loot, interact, change weapons, or change stance.
- Pausing the game during a door opening or closing will stop the animation of the door. After resuming, the door is stuck in place and will no longer open or close.
Special thanks to everyone that has updated and released this mod in previous versions. Those of us like myself with interruptions Thank You!

Workaround for those that somewhat wanna be safe while taking care or real world. 3.11.x ONLY!
Will allow you to lock any door so you can be protected. Don’t prone in front of the door, or close to it as they can be shot through. The world will go on, so increase the raid time with SVM to allow for a longer period off of the game. I run my games at 2 hours. And when you’re done, hopefully there’s someone alive still, or good loot here and there.
I can confirm early MIA from pausing on Lighthouse (i had way more than 10min left on timer tho).
I can confirm door stuck after pause and probably alt tab.
The mod is great for quick emergency, I wouldn’t pause for a long time on a raid I’m not ready to lose tho.
Don’t get me wrong, the mod is amazing and I use it everyday! Thank you for updating!
having an issue where i pause for a few seconds but when i unpause i cannot interact with the world around me. doors dont work, cant shoot things etc
Glad to see you keeping up with this, how was the updated to 4.0? Great work btw
Okay, maybe it’s just me, but I just downloaded the last 3 versions (1.3.0, 1.3.1, 1.4.0) and the netVnum.Pause.dll is the same size and date 15,360 (2025-03-21 11:05) in all three of them???
Maybe it’s a bug or I don’t know, but I paused it for 1 hour and when I came back I had missing in action.
I’ve been using this mod for a long time, good stuff. There’s only one thing that has been bothering me this whole time – and it’s laser attachments going out of sync whenever you pause. Have to toggle them off/on every time in order to fix this.
It’s likely related to being able to move your camera while arms are frozen in place. Simplest solution would probably be adding an option to disable head rotation during pause. Or utilize game’s existing head rotation functionality (MMB keybind, with fixed angle) which could possibly avoid this behavior. Not sure what the exact solution would be.
Hello it’s an awesome mod. Can I use it with Fika? Is there an exception to not pause while running co-op lobbies? Because it would be so cool being able to pause my solo raids.
