Hey!
Looking through my code now, I can't believe I made it so Continue() relies on the autoRead variable, so I've changed that. Doesn't really make any sense in practice... So now within the "Continue()" function, I've changed the line of code reading "Rebuild(totalReadTime, autoRead);" to "Rebuild(totalReadTime, true);".
That said, you should be able to use "Read(stm.currentReadTime)" so you don't have to cache the time using an event! (currentReadTime gets set to where the mesh last left off when Continue() is called)
There was a bug related to <e> tags being right next to <pause> tags that got fixed in v1.8.2, maybe it could be related to that?
Besides that, I can't seem to be able to reproduce the bug. Hopefully this is enough to get it fixed? If this doesn't work, I'll take a closer look!
