I seriously hope it is possible to keep this mod alive for now, it has truly have become a staple in my modlist.

@Zorak You should try Realistic Lighting and Shadows Mod, what you describe is probably what happens in summer though I feel like the dramatic shadows make the dusk and night look better. You could change your max tps to be much higher since there are less colonists running around at night there is less lag so nights will technically pass through faster.

What I'm looking for is something that will give me more daylight and less night, regardless of if it affects the actual length of day. The game looks so much better during daylight. I'd have permanent daylight if I could.

Anyway, will this mod do anything toward that, or does it just increase both light and darkness?

Amazing mod. Game feels weird without this. I have alot of mods that add extra work and the ability to make the day longer helps alot.

@DOCTOR CROW Updating all my mods, see Discord for progress

1.6?

You might want to take a look at Vehicle Framework flying vehicles; they are currently scaling their takeoff and landing times to match game hours, when they really ought to use the same realtime seconds like pawns walking. Otherwise if you make the days longer then the flyers get really slow to launch and land.

so if Im looking at the vid right, you CAN add more days to each quadrum with this mod?

@MEB The first step was to verify with only this mod loaded.

@Mile I have unapplied the mod reloaded saves to confirm that things work once again without the mod as normal.

I am not sure as to what to do here as there is no error debug there is just what I visually see in game of things not doing stuff or gaining of sleep as in my people were sleeping infinitely as if dead or doing a task infinitely with no progress bar fyi even on things that did have some progress already if that means anything. I can share a save file and / or list of mods?

@MEB Please see the Reporting Issues section described above

Mods not working for me can we get an update, so many issues. Time in my games seem same regardless of changing in mod options. Characters stop working or dont gain sleep etc many issue please i need this mod pls fix @Mile

Slowing time slows down the rainfall sprite, lol

Considering it isn't actually broken, I don't see why a fix is necessary... never had any of those reported issues

I understand Mlie has literally hundreds of mods to update all the time, but I wouldn't hold my breath for this one being fixed... people have reported the bugs in this mod in the past on the discord and it's been sitting as a "todo" for almost a year. We're now 3 months away from a year since "can't tend pawns unless they're downed or in a bed" was reported and 6 since someone else's "CE guns take an in-game hour to reload with this mod" bug was reported.

crying shame, because it was great for making large colonies livable so it wouldn't take a pawn an hour to get from his house to the kitchen, but it makes the rest of the game unplayable due to all the timings that aren't scaling properly.

@The Viral Divinity Please see the Reporting Issues section described above

Yep, had the value set to a odd number like 76% because I just wanted a mod that gave me slightly shorter days, and used this mod to do it. But, I put out a general Rimworld discussion about an error report being produced, and tracked it through multiple mods to here. And sure enough, after changing the day time value to 100%, the game froze for a few seconds as it recalculated the ticks, and then it fixed my colonists, and now they can do handling tasks again.

Something is wrong with setting the value lower than 100% ig.

Seems to break animals?

There seems to be a bit of an issue with the abilities of the Ideology moral leader role e.g. convert; normally the target is stunned long enough to make them stay still while the ability is casting, but with time scaling active they recover from the stun and walk away before the casting is complete. If they are kept stationary some other way it works, but it's annoying that they might keep running away.

@vincent_renevot No idea, the preview is from the original mod

@Mlie How can u be the 21th aprimay in your GIF please? I want to set up the number of days per seasons, i can't find a mod anywhere. How can u do that? Thank you

@Radiohead Someone already reported this in the bug-reports channel of the Discord server

pawns can't be tended properly; they keep moving around unless they're sitting still in a medical bed. is this being looked at?

I had to start somewhere and this is where I started. I can post the same thing under their comments. That would give me the opportunity to complain about how long the animation takes even at normal speed.

@Kriegstinte If it works with other vehicles then I assume that the author of the helicopter is doing it using some other tick as you say. What did they say about the issue?

[BUG]
1) load Vanilla Vehicles Expanded - Tier 3 (it will require others) and Time Control
2) place a Louie on the map
3) record the time it takes to exit the map (my test map was 42 seconds)
4) set time control to 300%
5) record the time the helicopter takes to exit (for me it was 2+ minutes)

Someone is using the wrong tick clock. Or maybe it is just part of the "everything else" and shouldn't be.

The vehicles helicopter animation is way to slow already. This problem makes it painful. I have not noted any other problems with vehicles, but it is a safe bet there are some.

Great mod. I can get so much more work done in the day before having to sit through a long, boring night of watching auto turrets blowing away invaders.

Did I miss it or didn't you say what "day" is? When does it start and end?

Considering how much of the fundamental code this changes, I am surprised Mlie has continued to update it

i am yet to test the mod, but finally something that allows me to have real time in rimworld!

The best thing about this mod is that is allows to balance the hundreds of mods that add complexity with more work types to do.

Need to process that iron into steel to make that toilet to poop in? Then this mod will allow you to extend the day manufacturing iron and pooping adds to your pawns busy schd.

I'm running into an odd error spam whenever a caravan arrives on map, hugs log is here: Linky [gist.github.com]

inspiration time isnt scaled

can you scale the records, it says time spent as colonist 12 years but my colony isnt that old.
it is more than a visual thing because the mod simple slavery collars adds a mechanic were the time spent as slave record is used for something, pewwty please

i understand but i was hoping the code was already present in it and was just a variable.
as damgam said theres an issue with recruitment, its saying that the attempt happened before the min. i dont have work scaled, on a 390% setting the attempt happens in 90 ticks but the min is 120. the person will try, but no floating numbers happen.
would there be a way to add a mod option to let the user set the min for recruitment attempts

Well, found a bug in 1.5!
Enslaving doesn't work with long days.
It works when i put it back to 100%, don't even need to remove the mod.

Thank you for updating this must-have mod to 1.5 Mlie. I hope you also have lots of fun with Anomaly.

cant wait for 1.5!

@ThottyNathaniel Dont think Ill have time to implement a second time-system in this mod

would you be able to add a different slider for scaling work time, so i could change the day scale indepedently?

@TSense Your best bet is to try to contact the original mod-author and ask them

the image shows the date going over the Rimworld limit of 15th, saying 18th to 21th of apr. As far as I can tell, this is not part of the mod and it is also not in the discribtion. I am not looking for longer days, I am looking for longer months. Making the limit 25 days and not 15.

Hey Mlie, similar past issues happens on Hospitality mod too, it has interactions such as the "Entertain guests" that needs both pawns to standing still; with this mod, the guests always start walking before the interaction to finish, although they don't cancel or interrupt the action like the others happened before.

Thanks a lot for the info

@lmgginspace Updating all my mods, see Discord for progress

Just very curious, plans for 1.5?

It seems that this mod will cause the ritual to end early?

Thinking it might be because hemogen was new in Biotech, I tested mechs too, they seem to be working fine though. Their batteries are charging and discharging at the right amount per day. I checked psyfocus too though and while psyfocus drain per day is correct, psyfocus gain from meditation is twice what it should be (with 2x time multiplier, naturally).

There's a problem with vampires; their hemogen drain rate isn't scaled, so they are losing more hemogen than they should be. If they should be losing ten per day, but the game is running at 2x scale, they are actually losing twenty.

Seems to be a slight glitch with the horseshoe pin; they throw two shoes at once.

@Jupiter Perhaps the animation mod can add support on their side. Im not sure it can be achieved from this side
