There's a Pause / Play button in the top-right panel, right under the clock. Hit Pause and the simulation freezes completely - no gang ticks, no AI decisions, no world saves running in the background. The map and UI stay live so you can pan around, check the minimap, and think. Hit Play and everything resumes from exactly where it stopped.The buttons are wired into the same State store that drives everything else in the game, so the pause state is consistent - there's no "timer forgot to check" edge case. We gated all four simulation loops (the main game tick, the pawn AI ticker, the world autosave, and the ghost AI) behind the same flag.
BBox Kingpin now has a built-in tutorial that walks you through your first game.It runs automatically on a new playthrough across three screens: the crew selection, the territory selector, and the map. 28 steps in total, each one pointing at the part of the UI it's explaining - crew portraits, the heat gauge, the $ panel tabs, the Green Light button, jail, map layers, all of it.The tutorial doesn't block you. You can skip it at any time or just click through at your own pace. It auto-advances on certain steps once the game detects you've done the action (like fronting product to a crew member), so it stays in sync with what's actually happening on screen rather than running on a fixed timer.If you've played before and know the game, you won't see it - it only runs when you start a fresh game with it enabled.
The game now runs in many languages - not just the menus, but every gang member name, property label, goal description, and faction detail across the entire UI.
