Description

Description:
Returns true if the game simulation is paused due to some system event like a dialog or pause menu or when user has Alt+Tab-ed (except when -nopause start up param is used). Relevant to SP, in MP simulation does not get paused.

onEachFrame event and "EachFrame" event handler continue to execute when the simulation is paused, which could result in undesired backlog. Use isGamePaused to skip loop if needed.
