I wrote a "Clock" class which calculates the time since calling the constructor method or the method restart() (System.currentTimeMillis() to mesure the current time). The problem is obviously that if someone pauses the program he can simply cheat himself unlimited time. Is there any way to get notified if pause has been used before the current frame / act. Then I could simply substract the spf (seconds per frame) from the playing time. Thank you!
