Hi

I have a simple question, how can I stop or pause the scheduler ?
```
[self schedule: @selector(tick:) interval:2];
```
I currently have a bool for ignoring it, but I am not sure if that is an efficient solution.
```
-(void) tick: (ccTime) dt
{
	if (scheduleNotActive)
	{
		return;
	}
}
```
Thanks

I think this has come up before in other posts and it seemed that people were simply stopping the schedule and would then just restart it.
```
[[Scheduler sharedScheduler] unscheduleTimer: collisionTimer];
```
I have a running counter in my game loop that's called by the timer so if the timer is stopped, I then refer to that counter to know where I'm at in the process when I start the counter again so I can pickup from where I left off (e.g. hitting a pause button in the game for instance).
