you can ent_next through the list of your entity's, and phent_enable them if they are phsyics entity's.

quick pseudocode (not tested, might have to fix this):
Code:
#define PHYSICAL_ENT skill1 // change this to the skill you want

void pause_PH_ents()
{
	ENTITY* pauser = ent_next(NULL); // retrieve first entity
 	while (pauser) // repeat until there are no more entities
	{ 
		if (pauser.PHYSICAL_ENT > 0) {
			phent_enable(pauser, 0); //make entity pause
 		}
		pauser = ent_next(pauser); //get next entity
	}
}


that should do the trick. call this function to freeze your physics functions.
make sure that every physics entity you are using has:
Code:
my.PHYSICAL_ENT = 1;


that initialises it as being a physics entity for the freeze function.

if you need to unfreeze them, copy the function and set the second option in phent_enable to 1, instead of 0.

hope that helps.
