I'm having an issue where the pop-up message for a siege victory doesn't pause the game.

In this game as Abyssinia I'm about to win the siege of Tadjoura, but when the message pops up the game doesn't pause. This is annoying because my warscore hits 100% after the siege and I use the automatic pause to demand surrender without wasting any time.

This doesn't happen all the time, and I don't think it's my message settings, because I have literally set everything to pause after pop-up and it still doesn't pause while everything else does.

Please fix it!

It seems to be working for me. Make sure to have all options clicked as "pause" when they happen. When you win a siege, just click the little "message" button (with a letter as an icon) in the bottom right hand corner. Then you'll get a message window in which you have all options available to that particular message. Open it and make sure all three columns have the "Will pause the game." option checked.

Hey, thanks for the reply!

Anyways, I already did that, so I had the "will pause the game" option checked when I loaded the save and it did not pause the game. I unchecked the option and reloaded the save and it still did not pause the game. I rechecked the option and this time it FINALLY paused the game.

This is a screenshot of my message settings (they are the same for all three columns). What's weird is that this is the only event that requires the "will pause the game" option to be enabled to pause the game when the pop-up is on screen. All of the other events pause the game when the message pops up, but resume after the pop-up window closes. From my experience the "will pause the game" option pauses the game when the message pops up, but remains paused after the pop-up window closes. Why does this event only pause when the "will pause the game" option is enabled? I think it might have something to do with the fact that there is no character assigned to the event, as shown in the red circle in the screenshot below, but I have no idea.

Additionally, in the above screenshot, it appears that Ethiopia is leaking outside the map borders (below the red line). Is there any way you can get that fixed as well?
