How to pause the game without PAUSE key?

[Mihao]

Hi there, I don't have PAUSE key on my laptop's keyboard. 'Pause' is written only on the left SHIFT key, but it doesn't work as pause here, I mean it does not pause the game. How to pause than? It seems like this control is not configurable in Assault Squad... Or maybe it is, or there is another way to pause?

Hitting "Backspace"(game speed) will pause the game, and bringing up the main menu.

Thanks, but I mean not to stop or pause the game and return to the menu, but to turn on interactive pause, in which I can give orders or see battlefield when the game is paused...

Sorry! of coarse you know how to do that STFH. Hitting the game speed key(backspace) will pause the game and you can still look around the battlefield. Then slowing down the game speed can give you more time to issue orders, unless that's also different on a Laptop.

Thank you! I found it out myself: I must hit "right SHIFT + Fn" key, and I have active pause.
