    Hey, I recently started using PlayableDirector and I found, that while playable director is stopped using playableDirector.Pause() you cant set the time using playableDirector.time .

    Is there a way to change the time while paused ?
    (btw I cant change the time first and then pause it, I need it to be paused in the first place)

    After setting the time you will need to call `director.Evaluate();` or `director.DeferredEvaluate();` We do this in the Timeline Window when setting the director's time via the playhead or the time field while previewing.

    Hi @grahamsaulnier
    I have a question that after we call `director.Evaluate();`, does the timeline affect to game object in world immediately. And we can get correct game object position.
