Any auto-pause options?

[LordBlade]

Or mods that add it?

I'd like the game to STAY paused after I close a popup.
I'm amazed they don't seem to have such options, considering how customizable pausing and popups are in games like Europa Universalis and Crusader Kings.

Where exactly? I'm not finding any menu for that.

Settings > Gameplay
Event Popups: On
Event Auto-Pause: On
Event Auto-Unpause: Off

Works for event popups, but not for tutorial popups.
I would also like it better if the game automatically paused on all popups.

Yeah, I have that. But it's incredibly basic. I was looking for more, like with EU or CK where you can have it STAY paused when you close a popup. And have it pause for things that aren't popups, or choose what does popup and what stays as a background message.

Sorry, that's all I know too. But maybe the bean-loaf-man and the Lmao-man from above have more useful tips. So far, those two have been about as helpful as a spoon in a knife fight. ;-)

Yeah, I was looking at workshop items and such, but it doesn't look like it's a thing people are able to do.

The issue is, it's not staying paused. When I close one of those popups, with the auto-unpause off, the game IS usually unpausing.

[Pieshaman]

event popups on
event auto-pause on
event auto unpause off

is best what you can get at this moment.

If they make a Stellaris II, I hope they give us EU/CK levels of control over things.
