 Description   

When pausing the game and there is a skeleton shooting me for example he will keep shooting even though the game is paused. I play on the Nvidia Shield k1 table. So pausing the game doesn't stop the actions. Even though i play single player

Would this be the reason why nothing saves unless you got to sleep at night? And once the game is "paused" the beds won't work, potions , flint and steel as well?

This is due to the current integration of multiplayer, and is working by design.

This is normal. It is not really a pause button, more like a menu button (hence it says Game Menu at the top and not Pause Menu). From my experience you can only pause the game by exiting the world and have never been able to pause the game while it is running.
