First of all - thanks for all your great and hard work!
Tixati is the best torrent client, with so many option for customize! - I love it! :-)

Some question and idea if it posible and have sense to you and others.
In old days when I use other torrent clients - they have pause option. Is it posible to that function be added to Tixati also!?
My use case:
I often use many, many torrents, so from time to time I have issue with enough free space. If I stoped active torrents (just to find a way with free space) - later I have problem to find wich torrents was active and wich is not.
With pause option - this scenario will be to much easier.

/ Sorry for my bad english. :-/

What is the difference between this and stopping the torrent?

There is no pause event in the bittorrent protocol, there's started, completed or stopped.

I know you say pause is "not possible" in the BitTorrent specifications.
But this could be implemented another way; by means of download slot management, like adjusting the download slots from 3 to 2

Try and think of it that way?

So a download slot can be removed for 6 hours, slot size reduces (minus 1) from 3->2 for that time until countdown expires then back to 3 slots
Does that make more sense? Rather than saying its not possible? Nothing in the specification says you could not do it that way?

I am also a former uTorrent user, and "Pause" is something I still miss to this day. "Pause" is something that I intend to "Resume". "Stop" is something I do not. It just makes a huge difference when it comes to usability of anything in-progress. And seeding/downloading is a continuous act.
When uTorrent got bought and people started to migrate elsewhere, I remember heated discussions on qBittorrent's design philosophy in this regard: "Paused is Paused. Stop means you don't want to seed later, so you can delete it from the client, it doesn't make a difference."

That's an unintuitive workaround. And only one category can be added per torrent.

BEP-21 event=paused (which is perfectly named from the technical/protocol point of view) exist.
But like most of us don't care about what IO operations happen when we pause a music in our media player, we don't really care about the protocol events here either.

devs, tell why this should not be a thing

PAUSE in µTorrent doesn't terminate connections, but anyway other peers are going to disconnect from you after few minutes of inactivity. They can even close their torrent clients thinking there is no one willing to download from them. A better option would be to reduce download speed to something like 30KB/s until you free some disk space.

+1 for pause button!

@TX007 - Adding an actual Pause feature doesn't make the bandwidth reduction option unavailable, right? So let the choice of what to use be the Tixati user's, and not you or the dev deciding for everyone.

+1 for the request. Is the dev even bothering to listen? I really don't see why there should be any resistance and refusal to implement this. :/

I regularly download to a NAS drive or not unlocked/mounted encrypted drive. Pause would be a good default error state when a path not found. Upon Tixati start-up verify that the path exists and continue these torrents. (It is how qBittorrent works too.)

+1 for this option
