Object movement via dt and lerp with 0 timescale

I've got a problem where I want to have neat, sliding menu icons that appear when I pause the game. Problem is that pausing (setting time scale to 0) breaks their movement, which is done via lerp(object.x, targetX, dt). I've tried setting the object timescales seperately to 1 after pause event, but it still doesn't seem to work. I am guessing dt is taken from game timescale?

What would be the simple way of going around this problem?

I'm going 100% natural here, so no plugins allowed! :)

Try setting the individual objects dt to 0 under the system actions.

Then use that objects dt in your expression "object.dt"

Thanks newt, I just read that piece in the manual as well! :)

Here is the quote for anyone that might come looking for the info:

"Objects have their own dt expression (e.g. Player.dt) which you must use instead of the system dt for all motion relating to that object."

Oh , that might come useful !
