Pause view

Just a reminder to remove the static part of the pause animation since we dont need it anymore.

Have you tried reducing the pause time to 0? Or near 0? How does that look?

I was also thinking of having particles of different speed and beightnesses flowing into or out of the paused player's light bar. What do you think of that idea?

Yeah, i tried this: TABLE_PAUSE_INACTIVE_DURATION = "0" but it just blinks.

Now, thats a cool idea, i really wanna see how it looks irl. My vote is on the Particles flowing out of the paused players light bar .

I made the next version. The settings for this new pause animation should be something like:

# How fast does the sparks move?
TABLE_PAUSE_SPEED_PPS_MIN = "1"
TABLE_PAUSE_SPEED_PPS_MAX = "5"
TABLE_PAUSE_SPEED_PPS_DISTRIBUTION = "CubicEaseOutIn"
TABLE_PAUSE_LOCATION_EASE = "LinearInOut"

# How far do the pixels move? 0 to 0.5 (0.5 being all the way around the table)
TABLE_PAUSE_DISTANCE_MIN = "0.2"
TABLE_PAUSE_DISTANCE_MAX = "0.5"
TABLE_PAUSE_DISTANCE_DISTRIBUTION = "CubicEaseOutIn"

# How bright are the pixels, and how fast do they fade out towards the end?
TABLE_PAUSE_BRIGHTNESS_MIN = "0.01"
TABLE_PAUSE_BRIGHTNESS_MAX = "0.4"
TABLE_PAUSE_BRIGHTNESS_DISTRIBUTION = "CubicEaseOutIn"
TABLE_PAUSE_FADE_OUT_EASE = "QuarticEaseIn"

# How frequent to we potentially spawn a new spark?
TABLE_PAUSE_SPAWN_PAUSE_SEC = "0.2"
# How probable is it that we spawn a new spark?
TABLE_PAUSE_SPAWN_PROBABILITY = "0.5"

I imagine you will want to change at least the speed in PPS to better match your table. The rest might be OK.
