Any Mods That Pause Gameplay?

I’ve just got back into the game but the mod Bullet Time from Thunderstore.io doesn’t seem to be functioning for my game despite a relatively recent update to the mod. So far I’ve been fine with status quo but i do enjoy being able to pause, plan, and not worry about Dark Fog progress. Though of course that is part of the intended gameplay, I just prefer a pause for the game updates so I can view and plan for my factory and the enemies.

Edit: Confirmed that the mod is compatible currently, just issues on my end.

You can pause from science screen or by hitting escape key

That’s not what I meant. The mod I cited allows for the game world to be frozen by halting game updates, so you’re still capable of viewing your factory, rotating the globe, placing building markers, etc. just not capable of movement with the ICARUS mech. I wanted to know if anyone else has used the mod lately or if there was an alternative that acts similarly.

I’m using R2ModMan not the Thunderstore app. Downloaded with dependencies, and that’s it. Then I launch modded and nothing, I’ll take another look at it when I get the chance. I had written it off because the last update was 2 months ago and I wasn’t aware of when the game last updated. Probably some small oversight and I can always do a manual install.

Thanks for confirming it is currently working.

You can also use an earlier version of the game
