STOP HIDING in 1.0.4?

So I looked at the source code of 1.0.4 (more specifically risingstar's code with bugfixes) and I saw the code for the 'STOP HIDING' message was still there, albeit slightly modified (to reduce the chances of it unnecessarily happening, I think). Except I've never seen the 'STOP HIDING' message when I pause at 173 or 106 this time around at 1.0.4 (as far as 1.0 arguably). Has anybody encountered the message upon pausing the game at one point (and if so, exactly when?), or is it just leftover code now? Because back in 0.9.3 it was a bit funny and also scary to pause while 173 was in its chamber in the intro and whenever I die from 173 or him nearby (where 'STOP HIDING' ALWAYS pops up to play its epic horror sound).
P.S. I want to know how it works now just in case as I am planning to make a micromod with the 'STOP HIDING FROM ERIC' message appearing if 066 is nearby.

It never happens to me. I've paused many times at 173 and I'm like this.
*Pause*
Oh shoot stop hiding!
*Stop hiding doesn't appear*
Yay
*Unpause*
*Snap*

I looked at the source code for that part as well, and if I remember correctly, it will trigger only if the kill timer is above 0. I will be doing some testing with the debug mode, but I don't think being near a SCP increases the kill timer. I don't really know what's its purpose neither.

It's how far into the death animation you are. If you're in the process of falling over dead, it increases. Once it's full, the GAME OVER box is displayed.

The reason it does this is because it was decided that it wasn't very fair with dangerous SCPs like 173 and 106 nearby, so now it wont do it (or it may just take a long time, I cant remember tbh).

Broke my game once, back at an older version.
Paused the game, went to the bathroom.
Came back and saw the Game Over screen.
Screw this
