   @Nifflas We have this in the project I'm working on right now, and it's a fairly routine situation. There are a number of pop-up menus, and each of them pauses the game, and there might be more than one open at any given time.

     I solved an incredibly unusual situation that can only exist in an incredibly unusual game by implementing an incredibly unusual feature:

     Pause stacking. Yes, you can stack multiple pauses. Only when you've unpaused the game as many times as there are stacked pauses, the game resumes.

     One day, I will explain how this can make 100% sense in a game (but maybe not most games)
