Summary0005698: Limited Pause game option
DescriptionThe ability to set a limited amount of pause time during game setup. The human player(s) would have a set amount of real time they can have the game paused. The initial amount would be set in during game setup, but so would an amount of additional pause time earned every X minutes of game time. So a player might select 30 minutes + 1 minute / 10 minutes. Pause time is shared by all players.

This would be really nice for people who are trying to reduce the how much they pause but especially nice in multi-player games. It helps to make the player really feel the difference between themselves, with limited ability to respond on multiple fronts, and the AI which can act instantly everywhere at once.

It might be a good idea to have a Hard Pause option (non-active pause with screen blocked out) in the ESC menu for games with limited pause so player(s) can take short breaks without needing to save, reload, and reconnect.
