What is the proper way to pause game to show ads

So,
I know that i can pause game using time.timescale but is this really okay if im going to show rewarded ads?

Will that method even stops the click detection which is built in at Heyzap SDK
Are there any possibilities that, time.timescale = 0 method will interfere with the Heyzap’s rewarded ad click detections?
I need those detections to stay up and running.

Depends on how Heyzap does their ads.

If they use Time.delta and Time.time (rather than Time.realDeltaTime and Time.realTime), then yes, it’s going to effect them.

I’ve never used Heyzap… their documentation should say though.

Also, you can easily test this by putting Heyzap in a dummy app, have some code that sets Time.timeScale to 0, and then runs an ad. If it works… than you’re good.
