Question how to call GenerateImpulse with unscaled time?

Is it possible to GenerateImpulse in CinemachineImpulseSource using unscaled time? I implemented a HitStop which when the player is damaged sets Time.timeScale to zero and after some time returns it to one. At the same time I want to generate an impulse for camera shake. But when timeScale is zero my virtual camera noise stops till timeScale backs to one. I saw the “Ignore Time Scale” tick on CinemachineBrain. But I think the problem is in GenerateImpulse which is a different component.

 

Thanks for your response. I tried it on my game and it seems to have some weird problems and didn’t work correctly. To reproduce the problem I created a new project with unity 2022.2.0f1 and added a simple rigidbody and floor and a virtual camera with Cinemachine Impulse Listener.
Then write this simple code to test changing Time.timeScale:

Code (CSharp):

1. public class Player : MonoBehaviour
2. {
3.     private CinemachineImpulseSource impulseSource;
4.  
5.     void Awake()
6.     {
7.         impulseSource = GetComponent<CinemachineImpulseSource>();
8.         CinemachineImpulseManager.Instance.IgnoreTimeScale = true;
9.     }
10.  
11.     void Update()
12.     {
13.         if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.W))
14.             impulseSource.GenerateImpulse(1);
15.  
16.         if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.S)) {
17.             if (Time.timeScale == 1)
18.                 Time.timeScale = 0;
19.             else
20.                 Time.timeScale = 1;
21.         }
22.     }
23. }

When the timeScale is 1 impulse works fine when pressing W. But when it’s zero the camera doesn’t shake.

The really weird thing is if I delete rigidbody2D from the player object it works fine when the timeScale is 0. When I have a rigidbody2D the box falls on the floor.

Were you able to reproduce the bug? I think when VCam moves the impulse listener doesn't work correctly.
