Summary0014455: Allow a checklist of events to automatically pause the game
DescriptionAdd a checklist of events that cause the game to automatically pause when they occur. The player can modify this list as they wish. Examples of default automatic pauses would be: War declared, Invasion started, Planet Lost, Senate Elected, CEOs changed, etc. This way players can have time to react and make decisions about important events without having to have very fast reactions.

As an example Paradox produces a number of games that use this feature and it is highly useful.

I can't imagine this would be difficult to pull off.

agree.
Using the X2 speed is like a leap of faith.

Agree, I'm afraid to fast forward because of this.

This! I hate to say, but I actually rage-quit at TLF twice and only because of fast forward having caused extremely bad events that could have been prevented.

It would be good to have above mentioned checklist set *per planet* if wanted.

I could imagine to have an additional button at the bottom to set globally and then you could have race icons (like in the attitude screen between races) where the planet specifc overrides could be set.

Lastly there should be two buttons "enable all / disable all"

And maybe "auto pause on all"
- enable military / disable military
- enable political / disable political
- enable economical / disable economical
...events


A list could include
War declared/truce declared/peace declared, Armada launsched/Invasion started, Planet Lost, Senate Elected, CEOs changed, RCI:Public/enviroment/economical/medical below X / highter than X, hydral tech found/ desaster struck planet/new quest
