Make sure to put isPaused = false; at the end of the GoToMainMenu function, so that you can enable inputs if you decide to click play in the main menu!

Thanks for making it simple and to the point. I appreciate the lack of useless filler that most people go for

thank you so much for sharing your videos with us, I feel like I honestly learn more from you than the coding courses I've been taking !! You're very good at what you do :)

Thanks for the tutorial ! It's very nice and I really needed that !! Looking forward your next 5min videos !!

having a youtuber that makes content on exactly what i need and in 2020 is godly. thanks!

This is perfect. Thank you for the efficient rundown!

your videos are super well made, beginner friendly, and perfect for game jams! please continue making tutorials!

Thank you so much for this, you´re a life saver!

bro finna be honest THIS GUY SOUNDS AWESOME his voice is so calming and soothing. Never got a more awesome experience from coding thanks man.

Tip: If your pause menu spams like a minigun when you press Escape, you can change the if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.Escape)) to if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Escape)).

thank you for this great video, plain and simple!

You're the Goat. Helped me out a ton.

Even though you had project of yours that has already been nearly completed, you've successfully shown my dumb ass how to solve this particular "problem". Thank you so much

Dude you are my new god, thank you so much :D

I wish all tutorials were like this you know very short direct to the point and entertaining.

Amazing tutorial. Many thanks!!

This helped me so much thank you kind stranger

I came across this video and it helped fix a bug in my pause menu so THANK YOU =>

Thank you!! Your videos are awesome

these tutorials are so useful for my game development, keep up the great content

ThankYou so much dude your vids been helping out a lot recenly

Ty so much, you helped me a lot!!

Helped so much! 👍

very quick and to the point, I appreciate that :]

again, i search "Unity 2d pause menu" and the second video is this one, like the other, i'm not disappointed, i think i'm going to subscribe x)

If you guys are getting a "Non assigned error". Put your pause script on an empty object outside your canvas then assign the PauseMenu object to your script after that make sure you don't have duplicates of the script.

And you can qui... Im learning with your tutorials thanks a lot :)

Thanks! Good video!

Why the hell are you so underrated? These are some straight on point Tutorials man! Thanks

You're a beautiful human being Mr.BMo.

Very helpful! thanks

Awesome tutorial. I have a pause menu now.

Tip: you actually cant put script everywhere u want (not on PauseMenu because script wont work if u disable gameobject :D)

Great video thx : )

Thanks a lot, much appreciated

Perfect, thanks! I'm just starting with all this and being able to set the timescale was the piece of the puzzle I was missing. Until now I had been setting a bool for "canMove" to false and wrapping it around every single movement command on my character but I was wondering what I would do about enemies and other environmental objects. I knew I could always give them something similar, but then having to tie all that in to a player pressing a key seemed awfully excessive. This looks like a much better solution!

i followed brackeys tutorial on the same topic and it wouldnt work for me! i tried this one and it worked perfectly! thank you so much! im new to programming and video game development and your video just helped me out alot... you just gained a sub

Thanks that's help me a lot

i love your videos

Make sure that you change isPaused bool to false in the Main menu function, otherwise your controls will be locked when you play again

thx my bro

Hey, so idk if youll see this but , My problem is that when the game is up the text choices "resume , quit " etc are overlayed on the game and it wont disappeared . they do work when I hit esc and the paused title comes up but the choices never leave?

Hi, thanks for the video! To stop receiving inputs for the gamepad(it's moving the character even when paused) e still making it available to navigate the menu, how do I achieve that?

thanks you guy

thank you

Hey, great tutorial! I was wondering if there's a way to stop the Standard Assets FPS Controller from letting the player still move the camera around when the pause menu is up, haven't been able to figure it out myself. Thank you!

Is "pauseMenu" the name of an existing object or is it assigned to the menu by the script?

nice Video (:

for those who have issue with UnassignedReferenceException error, go chack out "PAUSE MENU in Unity" by Brackeys, he did it in a slightly different way and it works

Hi, I'm just wondering I don't have a game manager and I don't know where to put the script so it's not working could you please tell me how where to actually put the script if I don't have a game manager?

So I have a fade into scene ui in my project, and so now my buttons don’t press because of it. Anyway to fix this? Thanks

Smashed the like as hard as I could have

How do you fix it so it works after you have buildt and run the game? Only works in game tab in the editor but not in the buildt version

Hello, I followed the tutorial and I like it! but it seems there is a problem happening to me, when I pause the game my Standard FPS controller still rotating any advise?

how could i make a pause menu for a multiplayer fps game? because when I press escape, the cursor still moves my camera for whatever reason, even if I have an if else condition in place to prevent that

Arigatou senpai 🙏

you're a fucking legend.

Hi- I’m using SC_FPSController script and I can’t freeze the the camera moving with the mouse (so can’t stop player movement) Should I unconnected them so solve that??

While this method is great for tiny games, hard setting the timescale will often lead to issues in larger games.

im using the same version as you and before you did the static ball and yeah in my 3d it doesnt work

im using both youtube tutorials and chatgpt both help a lot. first i get what i want on youtube than expand with chatgpt, and im actually learning.

ok but now how do i make it work... like i do make pressing the quit game button quit the game and make the resume game resume it when you click it or the back to menu take me to the main menu

5:48 what is my gameManager ? the Camara ?

I'm using this for a VR game, however with this script i cannot interact with the buttons, without the script i can. Any ideas how to fix that?

'PauseMenu' does not contain a definition for 'isPaused'-error is popping up. how do i fix this?

Doesn't work for me im getting and issue with assigning it to a game object The game is freezing when I hit esc but there is no menu popup Im trying to figure it out right now but there's an issue with setting the script to something, and then putting something as a the gameobject for pausemenu Edit - I believe it has something to do with the camera settings Edit 2 - Yes it was the canvas, once I set it to follow the camera it made my already small menu microscopic. So I saved a copy of the panel, made the change, then repasted the panel and it's perfect. Now my pause menu follows my camera screen which is what I wanted. You need to set the pausemenu as a gameobject in the pause menu script Edit 3 - You cannot call PauseMenu from another CS script it does not exist You have to import it

i got the menu button and quit button to work but i cant resume the game or push escape to take the menu away

why my functions (pauseGame(), resumeGame()) are not appearing in inspector when on click() .. i have put the the script in separate gameobject and applied this game object in on click() .. still not functions of the script appearing, why?

unity gives me an error saying " PauseMenue does not have a definition for SetActive" on top of that the public gameObject does not appear in the scripts inspector. Can anyone help?

When i go to "on click()" - button i dont have the options that u have

When I press escape pause menu doesn't show up any solution?🥺

my main menu is stuck for some reason after going from the pause menu, what could be the problem ? i hope someone answers asap really need it for school

when i press play the game goes on but when i press the esc button it will not show up. can someone help me?

if i was making a 3D game how would i stop my camera from moving around when im in the menu

Someone please help quick when I click esc the pause menu doesnt go away and it updates my game if i do it again

I've used your code to make a death screen, but when i die my mouse doesn't show up, do you know why this is?

What vs code extensions do u use for unity

Can you make a gameover menu thing couse i'm stuck with things like that

does anybody know how to make it not lock back to the camera if im making a fps game?

Hmm I'm pressing the button but the menu does not come up. I already added the gameobject to the script as well. Can anyone help?

Hey, this keeps happening to me. If I go back to the main menu, it's frozen, I can't click anything, can someone help?

when I run my game the escape key doesn't work, and I followed this video by the second so does anyone know why that's happening.

What if you have animations and want to use them? Example you have options button and want to make it slide in the option screen if you click on it.

When i make a build of my game, and i click Escape two times, the screen gets blurry and i cant play my game anymore. Anyone any suggestions?

Tip2: dont forget to add PauseMenu.isPaused = false; in start function in your shoot script xD

Someone help me please! is giving the error: "The name (Principal) is not in the context csharpCS0103". This code would be to change the scene, in this case it would be for the Main Menu scene, I changed the scene name to "Principal" but it will not go at all!

add eventsystem if you cant click on any buttons to your hierarchy

i don't have a PauseMenu function. can someone explain why? thanks in advance.

How can I make the escape button android friendly?

everything is working but when i press back to menu my cursor locks again

I know this video is super old and no one cares, but is the audio from the beginning from Juice Universe? (I believe that's what it's called now after it got renamed)

Hi my script isnt working and would like help my script is making the buttons work

i'm with the following error Assets\scripts\PauseMenu.cs(45,9): error CS0201: Only assignment, call, increment, decrement, await, and new object expressions can be used as a statement

UnassignedReferenceException: The variable pauseMenu of PauseMenu has not been assigned. You probably need to assign the pauseMenu variable of the PauseMenu script in the inspector. PauseMenu.PausedGame () (at Assets/Scripts/PauseMenu.cs:35) PauseMenu.Update () (at Assets/Scripts/PauseMenu.cs:23)

Guys, please be careful about that method called GoToMainMenu(). Cause if you forget to add that "Time.timeScale = 1" line, your game is freezing and just buttons working. No animation or anything else...

UnassignedReferenceException: The variable pauseMenu of PauseMenu has not been assigned. You probably need to assign the pauseMenu variable of the PauseMenu script in the inspector. PauseMenu.Start () (at Assets/Scripts/PauseMenu.cs:14) PauseMenu.ResumeGame() (at Assets/Scripts/PauseMenu.cs:42) what I miss or did wrong?

Time.timeScale, affects button animations, how to avoid it?

i have a question with this script and menu , when i open my game the menu appear on game whit pressing nothing ,how i resolve this?

Out of curiosity, why do you use vscode over visual studio, especially in unity?
