Pausing and Resuming particle simulations!
Why is this not a feature? It would be so nice to be able to simulate for about 200-300 frames, and based on where the particles end up you make changes - add new colliders etc and then continue simulation after!

It is indeed weird this is not a feature. I think it was almost added at some point in the alpha versions, but it got removed.
There are ways to manually implement this, however. You just need to use a switch right after the simulation input node, within the sim zone. The switch (or switches), if off, can then move all geometry/attributes directly to the inputs of the Simulation Output node, effectively skipping that frame.
