!!! ATTENTION !!!

DO NOT USE THIS MOD alongside X2 WOTC Community Highlander of version 1.29.0 or higher, IT WILL BREAK YOUR GAME.

If you really want to use this mod alongside Highlander, you must revert to one of the older versions, which you can download here: https://github.com/X2CommunityCore/X2WOTCCommunityHighlander/releases

and install it manually:

Make sure to unsubscribe from the workshop versions of Highlander if you do this.

FYI, this mod is now broken with the latest 1.29 Highlander.

this causes issues with latest>
community highlander fix
it freezes up the geosphere

for some reason this causes the game to lock up upon the first blacksite being revealed (it doesnt let me leave the geoscape open the pause menu or anything - all i can do is move the camera)

Do not use with Covert Infiltration...

it may be an incompatibility with another mod, but when the Avatar project level increases time continues to run and I've had over 7 days worth of events trigger without being able to react. Instead they all trigger at the end.

and it's incompatible with "force level display"

emmm, this mod conflict wiht Covert Infiltration mod. Infiltration mission never show up

so I fixed my computer issues, Do you mind if I look/poke into your mod source code & try & figure out a way to make those mods compatible ? @krumiro

I honestly was never able to tell if this worked. I think at most I saw the clock change by an hour (I had the rw hours not days sort of mod on), but that was even flying 4-5 thousand kilometers (taking into account time zones). I also didn't notice if I was really able to switch destinations mid flight.

Can anyone confirm this definitely genuinely works? (and does it conflict with 'More Covert Actions'? Because "upcoming events" or whatever that other 'hours not days' mod DOES and Geoscape goes down to less than 10 fps)

haha, understood. Wish I could help you on that front, but unfortunately my motherboard is dead and I'm not even sure I can buy replacements parts. so this is looking grim ;)
Thanks for the replies though. Much Appreciated.

Unfortunately I have enough free time only to create new / debug existing modifications (and prepare many other old private Mini-Mods for public release) which I wish/need to personally use in my own beloved 15min/day Campaign... BUT... if enough of you "votes" for it (I'm not going to say the word but it ends with "-onation"... and rhymes with motivation...;) ) I could push it higher in my daily priorities list... ;)
krumiro  [author] 5 Feb, 2020 @ 6:21am 
No sorry, I didn't spend time in programming that feature because I personally don't need it (I consider the "unknown availability time" of each mission / scanning site a realistic and exciting risk as part of the game...)
[DBH].Whismerhill.{SSgt} 4 Feb, 2020 @ 9:43am 
Alright thank you.
Does your other mod "RW Better Upcoming Events Side list" show expiring time of missions in hours ?
that's the main thing I'm interested about, I wanna be able to wait for that few hours soldier before beginning a mission for example...

Thanks again.
krumiro  [author] 2 Feb, 2020 @ 6:21am 
Unfortunately it is incompatible with the "[WotC] Hours instead of Days" Mod (because my "RW Realistic Flight Mode" Mini-Mod substitutes the UIStrategyMap Class with my own version which is identical to the original except for the fact of disabling the pause/resume commands during takeoff/landing, commands that are exclusively inside of that Class and for which I have found so far no other way to disable)...

...if it may serve as meagre consolation, my other Mini-Mod "RW Better Upcoming Events Side-List" implements some of the functionalities of "[WotC] Hours instead of Days"... ;)
[DBH].Whismerhill.{SSgt} 1 Feb, 2020 @ 9:03am 
apparently
there is an issue with [WOTC]Hours instead of days https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1125973633
which displays hours remaining for missions & scanning sites : https://prnt.sc/qw3v9r

enabling realistic flight mode, disables that display
disabling realistic flight mode, enables back that display

Can anything be done ? or did I mess up somewhere ?
[DBH].Whismerhill.{SSgt} 1 Feb, 2020 @ 7:57am 
Thanks
krumiro  [author] 1 Feb, 2020 @ 7:56am 
Thanks Whismerhill! Added Geoscape and time in the description. No, you can activate/deactivate the mod anytime mid-campaign... ,)

hi, just discovered this mod
I must say it needs some more keywords to find it
When I searched for "geoscape" I didn't find it
When I searched for "time", I didn't find it either

In the end, when I became aware of the issue about time not passing by while flying
see this thread : https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/app/268500/discussions/0/1744517965166237414/
I couldn't find this mod until I mentioned it on the XCOM discord and someone kindly pointed out that there was a mod called "flying something"


do you need to start a new campaign for this mod ?
krumiro  [author] 7 Jan, 2020 @ 7:48pm 
Just uploaded an Update fixing a Bug making this Mini-Mod crash the game during the pop-up of Chosen Avenger Defense and Ufo Avenger Defense... ;)

For those you having the "Stuck in Geoscape" bug, the most reliable workaround I've found is to click the "Objectives" text in the upper left.
krumiro  [author] 18 Jan, 2019 @ 4:55am 
I know... it happens very rarely and the solution I use is to go back to the avenger using one of the bottom-left waring icons (too few scientists, too few resourcers, soldiers waiting to bond..)..

Mini-Mod born over a year ago (mutilated from the Mega-Mod)... but public only since 2 days ago... ;) if you only knew how many and how cool ones are still private just waiting for me to have the time to debug, tidy up and publish (as extra programming practice) to let you also enjoy them... ;)

Hm first comment over a year after the mod was born :steamhappy:

Whatever. I like the idea and it is kinda needed with your other mods (engineering). But every now and then i get stuck on the world map. It s a kind a game freeez. You cannot scan (no icons for scanning) you cannot go back in the avenger. Time goes by but that s it. It s a "critical error" ... no way to play game from this piont.

I would like to use it but i guess, since you and i are the only one using it at all ... it makes not send to put time in investigating for you. I understand.

Thanks for all you work anyway !
