Hi!
To continue a animation where it stopped, you have to set a new start time
in the alpha object associated with your interpolator. Because the
alpha-value calculation uses the current time the "jumps" you described
occur.
You can for example store the current time when you stop the interpolator.
When you want to resume the interpolater you have to calculate the time
difference between "now" and the stopping time. Now you only have to add
this difference to the previous start time of the alpha object and set the
modified start time. Then the animation should continue where it stopped.
Sincerely, yours
Michael Lorenz.
