UKismetSystemLibrary::K2_IsTimerPaused

function Engine Blueprint Since 4.0

#include "Kismet/KismetSystemLibrary.h"

Access: public Specifiers: staticUFUNCTIONBlueprintPure

Description

Returns true if a timer set with Set Timer by Function Name exists for the given object and function and is currently paused via Pause Timer by Function Name.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Returns false for a cleared, never-set, or nonexistent timer — it does not distinguish 'never paused' from 'doesn't exist', so pair it with Does Timer Exist by Function Name if that distinction matters.
• Matched by the Object/FunctionName pair, not a handle, so this only reports the pause state of whichever single timer entry currently occupies that pair in the timer manager.
