Changelogs
Version 1.2.0
CMake refactored per Smart Harvest SE
Avoid crash in dialogue cleanup after teleport in quests
Separate save/load/loadscreen pausing in config
Adds new config setting to delay the pause, trying to fix weird CELL lighting etc
Pause now happens in the timer thread. The intention is to enable main thread to complete CELL setup during configured delay. Seems stable and may be working, it's hard for me to tell.

Properly observe settings. Note that this mod unpauses on any user input - mouse or controller, as well as keystroke.
Not compatible with either of the above script-driven mods.
This mod unpauses on any user input, not just keystrokes. Mouse and gamepad should also unpause. Filtering config allows use of a subset of these inputs.
Configuration via INI file with these defaults (Nexus munges part of this, to avoid JavaScript code injection via "On Save" I think - check in the mod package file):
[Pause] ; time out the pause - set in seconds - 0.0 means wait for user input before resuming ResumeAfter=5.0 ; delay acceptance of user input for unpause - set in seconds - 0.0 means allow user input right away ; timeouts stack: if you set both, auto-resume fires after (ResumeAfter + CanUnpauseAfter) seconds CanUnpauseAfter=0.0 ; a short delay on the pause may be required to allow CELL setup to complete after load-game or a transition PauseDelay=1.0 ; Pause-on-save, set to 1 for true, 0 false - no hyphen in the actual setting name PauseOn-Save=0 ; Pause-on-load, set to 1 for true, 0 false PauseOnLoad=1 ; Pause-on-load-screen, set to 1 for true, 0 false PauseOnLoadScreen=1 ; Input filtering, set to 1 to ignore, 0 to allow unpause on event IgnoreKeyPressAndButton=0 IgnoreMouseMove=1 IgnoreThumbstick=1
