currently, pausing forces you to sit through the entire animation before the menu becomes usable (and thus the game resumable)

allowing an instant destroy of the pause widget with ESC at any time (even during the pause anim) would be extremely handy

this is likely the wrong tag for this issue but i'd consider it adding a feature to the game rather than adding a UI element and it's not exactly a bug so w/e

I don't like how long the menus take to animate to begin with. It was cute at first but it's old now. I may just have escape and pause menus pop open. I'll work on this.

works, but with a bug. hovering a menu element brings up a tooltip. once a tooltip is visible, you must manually press escape to close the tooltip (lol), then escape again to close the pause menu.

can reproduce, on that note it seems to happen with basically all tooltips currently in the game except the inventory ones (fish in inventory/bait and lures available)

tooltips affected from quick testing:

when hovering the top tabs in menu (logbook, jobs, etc)
hovering a discovered fish/animal + its artwork on the logbook
the new tooltip to get extended numbers on the jobs
hovering any of the options in the character editor

and so forth, u get the idea
