Faster Nights

Description
VERSION INFORMATION:
SUPPORTED VERSION: Build 41


WHAT THIS MOD DOES:
Faster Nights makes the nighttime accellerate towards the morning Fast, Faster or Instantaneously, allowing you to skip it.

From 21:00 to 07:00 (default values) time will be accelerated and move quickly, and outside this timerange go back to normal speed. This is a Serverside Luascript and should work in MP.

The time range is of course configurable, as well as how fast time will go by.

If you set the time speed to anything but 'Instant', then you will experience some weird effects, like time stepping back. This is because the lighting system in the game can't catch up. I do not know why this happens. But regardless - it works.

NOTE:
This mod uses the Sandbox Variables for configuration, so you have to enable it in the mod menu, as well as the Server settings (MP) for it to take effect.

The European Union has classified russia as supporter of terrorism. Mod is disabled on russian setups. I have no obligation to create mods that works for everyone.

@TheGoddess0fWar What you are asking for is not supported by the mod.

how would I make sunset 12am and sunrise 7pm? The settings are a little confusing to understand, thanks!

@Lector sorry missed your post.

This is my guess: when you restart, the mod defaults to the settings in t he Lua file, so even if you have a saved game on the server (with custom settings) that gets loaded, i suppose that the mod settings needs to be reconfigured every time you reload/restart the server.

This is something i did not expect as sandbox variables set for the specific instance of the game and should be loaded into the game. I'll make a note of it and get back to it for when B42 is officially released.

Hi!
Thank you for the mod!

In our server (v41), the file pzserver_SandboxVars.lua, as all other mods settings, we have
FasterNights = {
Enabled = true,
iSunrise = 1,
iSunset = 5,
enumNightSpeed = 3,
},
So it should instantly teleport in time from 23:00 to 04:00.
But even after servers restart, it always teleporting from 21:00 to 06:00.
It looks like ignoring of the .lua file.
How could we fix this?

Thank you!

I'm do pleased with your political views and mod. Your work deserves great respect. Thank you for creating this mod and supporting Ukraine, it means a lot to me.

Thank you for supporting Ukraine and recognizing russia as a terrorist. For many people, this is quite important.
And thank you for the nice modification! Now we don't have to ask all the players on the server to go to sleep at the same time, and then die because of a time bug!

@Breno Np, just wish i could get the clock to work better when time accelerates. But that is a problem to solve in the future.
