Found a bug. Cant exit Pause.
Once Ive gone to pause (f1 etc) it wont let me leave again. i have to restart the game.

ESC is greyed out, and ive mapped the secondary to my controller, but again, nothing works when youre actually already paused.

Im not talking about the screen where you see the truck, company overview etc etc, but the actual game pause. quite annoying when using steam overlay to talk to friends!

Escape won't release you from pause. You have to hit f1 again to unpause.

This thread died about 2 years ago.
I've had ATS since the day it was released and have never seen this issue. I'm not saying it doesn't exist, I'm just saying that if it was a bug in the game code then it seems reasonable to assume that more folks would've experienced it - and more posts would've been made about it - or it's been fixed.

But.. it would help if you uploaded your game.log.txt to www.pastebin.com and paste the link to it here. That's always a good start.

I have it as well right now. F2, F3 works and buttons on the navigation, F1 doesn't. I called 911 and I got a quicksave so I didnt lose my cargo after a restart
