Is there a hot key button in GS for taken Snapshots of screen most of the time I can't move mouse from player to button quick enough, would be a big help to have one if not.

    Dang was just thinking I could just set up a invisible pause button and accomplish the same thing.

    Invisible pause button?....

    Command + Shift + 3 = Screen shot. But of the whole screen.

    down & dirty you could use Applications > Utilities > Grab.app … with a delay!

    but good for you @BBenk… for helping yourself and sharing to help others!

    Right @ozyboybrian : and Command+Shift+4 … pauses all screen action and turns cursor into a drag-able capture area.

    So I just added a key function to my pause button and used my spacebar too pause the game and goto a blank scene and invisible actor to unpause game that way I can hit spacebar and capture action shots for my screen shots like below works perfect.

    Great @BBenk … that's one of the things I love about GS, so many different ways to do things … and you can pick which works best for you!

    you are only giving us a brief glimpse of your game … enough to make us curious … looks intriguing!

    Command+Shift+4 puts you into screen capture mode . . . (you can release the keys once in screen capture mode) . . . now press the space bar and your cross hair cursor will turn into a little camera - which allows you to screen grab just a single window (rather than the whole screen) - simply hover over the window you want to capture and click the mouse. You can even capture windows that are obscured by other windows . . .

    Command+Shift+Ctrl+4 . . . does exactly the same thing as above except images are captured to the clipboard and not saved to the desktop.
