Pause and resume simulation without user input

[tokola]

Yeap, I knew this.
However I've got schedulers and starttimer() events occurring randomly during playback, so it's really hard to address specific timers. Pause() takes care of all these, freezing their operation without cancelling them, but also deactivates animations (actions). I guess there's no other way around it, right?

Just keep a list of active timers and start/stop them on pause
Schedulers may be a bit more tricky, but you could use some while loops to wait when the game is paused.
