Hey!

I've been considering using the generic pause menu along with a few added menuitem() entries to save some space. I'm not crazy about the entry to close the menu being labeled "Continue," when I've got a custom item just below it labeled "Load Last Save," (specifically on my title screen and my player death screen.

Is there a way to change the language of the default pause menu items, or even hide that "Continue" entry altogether in this use case?

Thanks!

Not to my knowledge.

Well, you could make a custom pause screen!

if(band(btn(),64)!=0) poke(0x5f30,1)

This line should go in your _update() function. This suppresses the attempt to bring PICO-8's default pause menu. If you modify it like so:

if(band(btn(),64)!=0) poke(0x5f30,1) mode="pause"

it would change states (assuming you even use a state system).

P.S.: If you do use a state system, consider putting the above line in your game update or title update function to prevent activating the default menu when already in the custom menu.


Looks like a custom menu might be the solution. Thanks!
