How to slow down mesh animation (while it's animating)?

[cartman]

Hi guys, took a short hiatus on coding, now i'm back. 

I'm trying to move a cube through a curve.

I built a simple "slow motion" function, where if the user clicks anywhere on the scene, the FPS of the cube's animation is slowed down. On the next click, the FPS returns to normal. (it's a toggling function).

Somehow, it's causing a weird behavior. It's as if the 'slow-motion' cube's movement is entirely different from the regular cube movement.

Take a look: http://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#14EGUT#22 (try clicking a few times, to see what I mean). My goal is to just slow down movement of the cube, and then increase it again back to normal.

Any ideas on whats causing it, and how to fix this? Am I using the wrong functions?

sorry, bumping this post, hopefully someone can figure this out. Been banging my head the past 24 hours on this

@Deltakosh thanks for the ratio variable, but somehow it still acts weird.

My observation

I run the code. I wait till the cube gets halfway up the curve.

I clicked once to slow down, the cube suddenly finds itself at the bottom again. Weird!

Actually this is kind of expected as the whole animation is based on a given speedRatio and a given FPS

To solve your issue I would recommend recreating the animation
