So I am abit out of the Loop here, So If it works in MP does it make it so 1min in real life = 1min in game>? Or am I wrong here?

It works great in single player, too bad it doesn't work on a dedicated server :(

I put this mode in my game and it doesn't work at all, well done!!

Ah, so it's just in-game time. Gotcha. And thanks for the reply! :cherrypie:

Doesn't affect speed of mechanics.

I was curious about this. Affect your gameplay, does it also affect the speed of my stats decreasing? Hunger, fatigue, thirst?

WHAT FUCKING SOCIOPATH CAN DO THIS

The amount of dedication you need to keep a character alive without the ability to pause time makes the game unplayable.

Not to mention it doesn't work with any other game mechanics. The only thing that seems to be changed is the clock speed and the day/night cycle.You need to eat and sleep as if the game play time hasn't changed.

"Really real time":spiffo:

this is not really real time if you are gonna do this reeeeally real time mod you need to add some fixes like time passes in real time, disable fast game speed, character is gonna need sleep after a 16 hours in real life and when character needs sleep you will gonna close the game and open it after 6 to 10 hours cuz when you close your game character gonna sleep and if you close your game when character doesn't need sleep your character gonna start to getting bored but if you can't do the last things i say idk how to do really real time xd

I tried to look for this information in the other posts and your replies but It is still unclear to me on how this effects in-game simulated activities such as reading, hunger, tiredness, etc.

For example, vanilla you should have your character eat about twice a day. One full in-game day is roughly 30 REAL WORLD minutes. So.. with this knowledge it is easy to say your character eats about two times every 30 REAL WORLD minutes.

With this mod, does this change the need to eat frequency or does it stay around twice every 30 REAL WORLD minutes?

Likewise, do the other things chance frequency in relation to REAL WORLD minutes? Or does this mod just simply effect the ambient time?

So how do I start it then?
Do I select real time on Sandbox options?
Or do I just leave it at 1 hour.
Some description of this would have been nice.

@Necrosx
Thanks for feedback.
I will fix this when the multiplayer appears in 41.x

Turns out that the time doesnt appear correctly as I thought. It just sets it to midnight, and sets the temperature to 0 as well. Eventually it just goes back to what it should actually be for the server.

Just found out because I managed to acquire a watch before signing out last night and after logging in I found that out.
Necrosx 10 Sep, 2020 @ 10:23am 
Been trying to play with this mod with friends, but it doesnt appear to be working in either Host or Dedicated Server modes. The time will appear correctly for a minute or two before returning to what the game's time would be normally for the start period. Looking forward to being able to use it properly since it's a great idea.

this mods great love playing at around 3 am, getting into multiple early morning encounters and surviving long enough to see the sunrise

@star thanks for more info, i tried the mod it wen't pretty well so far , so its cool thanks for making it.

@Dikkejood
Hunger will increase in real time like it increases in vanilla real time of the game. You won't tired after 4 hours of playing. If you feel uncomfortable playing this mode of the game, don't use this mod.

I'm not sure about purpose of this mod. My friend asked me to make it. But some other people like it too. So I think it's somehow useful.
Dikkekloot 9 Jul, 2020 @ 5:20pm 
or will the time still pass
Dikkekloot 9 Jul, 2020 @ 5:19pm 
will you still get tired after like 4 hours of playing in realtime , because otherwise this mod is pretty useless, i like the idea that the mod updates the current time but doesnt it mess up the main core of the game when you need to eat and heal and sleep, like if i will sleep at 12am and then wake up , it doesnt feel immersive that its still 12 am , my character cant be fully rested in 1 min

ok, ty! :)
Lord Hobotok 6 Jul, 2020 @ 12:53pm 
@Spyware006 nope)
Spyware006 6 Jul, 2020 @ 10:58am 
how can I manage the shutdown time? I need 6 (real)months play time?
And zombification time? A (real) week?
thx
Spyware006 6 Jul, 2020 @ 5:54am 
interesting
star  [author] 6 Jul, 2020 @ 12:52am 
Fixed now.
The mod won't affect ingame time while sleeping.
star  [author] 5 Jul, 2020 @ 11:29pm 
Hmm... very badly. Actually it doesn't work.
Should be fixed today.

Lord Hobotok 5 Jul, 2020 @ 6:33am
