Description

I would like a checkbox option in the Timer component to make it ignore the pause hotkey. So that I can have two timers show, one that includes pause time and one that doesn't.

If this is not possible due to how the timer is implemented. A "pause game-time" hotkey would also work (then I set one timer to real time, and the other to game-time).

Research direction

Start by locating the Timer component and the existing pause-hotkey handling. Determine whether the timer can ignore pause events independently; otherwise evaluate the requested pause-game-time hotkey. Done means two displayed timers can separately include or exclude pause time.
