Do not print "Please press SPACE to continue"

I am using Basic Screen Effects by Emily Short.

How should I prevent pause the game from printing “Please press SPACE to continue.”?

[Apart from duplicating the above mentioned extension as "Altered Basic Screen Effects" by Iris Colt and modifying the following code, that is.]

For pausing the game (this is the standard pausing the game rule):
	say "[paragraph break]Please press SPACE to continue." (A);
	wait for the SPACE key;
	clear the screen.

You can unlist the rule entirely.
The standard pausing the game rule does nothing.

The standard pausing the game rule response (A) is "[run paragraph on]".

Thanks. I just wanted to prevent the rule from printing “Please press SPACE to continue”. It seems that your suggestion disables the pause too. :thinking:
