Pausing the game.

This is not a bug only a very strange feature I don’t understand. What is up with being unable to pause the game in an offline world. I imagine that this is an issue across all systems, and I do realize this has been the case for a few years now. Never the less the ability to pause a single player game is a bare bone essential, this is not dark souls, it’s Minecraft, and it’s pretty annoying to log out every time I need to get up and do something. Some people have babies, some people get called to help with something, and all people need to use the bathroom. Nothing sucks more when you’re gone for less than a minute and you come back to see a random creeper blew you up, your dog randomly suffocated to death or was killed in combat, and all your villagers were killed or turned into zombies because they’re too brain dead to go inside when they’re being attacked. On top of that zombies, illagers, and ravagers can break down doors anyways. Goodbye master weapon smith and the 150 emeralds I spent to level you up, I didn’t know me peeing was Worth your life. The worst part is this was something you could do before on PS4 but for what ever reason we can’t have the most basic function for the game. Please when I bring up the pause menu, please actually pause the game. PC can do it, even ones less powerful than the PS4.

Side note, give us the ability to have color map markers with banners like Java. A sword swipe and more items in our offhand would be cool to.
