A separate menu under Option >> Game for customizing when every kind of event should or not pause the game would be very handy for customizing game to each player playstyle.

It is already in just not per user but per game, see message settings button (small) on the sidebar (geoscape).

O, nice. Im felling quite dumb now :P

Maybe u could simple add the option for text box expanding event (pause/unpause) on game option, since sound and text message do not apply.

sorry, what do you mean?
actually you can configure pause, notification (that is the message in message list) and sound notification for various events. What are we missing?
If you have suggestions which categories/event types we should add, please suggest them and we'll decide.

Expanding geoscape log automatically pauses time. Very nice feature geever added. Was just proposing it to have a option to set it true/false (for pausing). Since this not involves text or sounds, this option could be elsewhere (or maybe on same notification config as the other events with text and sound greyed out).

The time is only stopped when the full geoscape is covered by the event log. I think there is no need for such an option.

Probably right. I can be a perfectionist freak sometimes. lol
Well, it can be useful as a beta tester though.  :P

Nice work geever.
