This mod was intended to be an unofficial "unofficial update" to the original Fast Forward mod by crazywig. The original mod is not open source, but I desperately needed an updated version for SDV 1.6, and since the mechanic is basically explained in the mod description, I just made a new version myself. In a nod to the original, I've kept the HUD messages and default config settings the same.
How to use:
Press the TILDE (~) button to make the game run seven times as fast. Press the SEMICOLON (;) button to make the game run twice as fast. Press either button again to return to normal time flow. You can change both the key-bindings for the buttons and each button's multiplier via the config settings (see below). Note that both speed options have a minimum value of 2, since making the game run "one time as fast" isn't fast forwarding at all.
Config settings (compatible with GMCM):
Button 1: The button that will toggle the first speed multiplier. Default: TILDE (~)
Speed 1: The number by which the game's time flow will be multiplied upon pressing the first button. Default: 7 / Minimum: 2
Button 2: The button that will toggle the second speed multiplier. Default: SEMICOLON (;)
Speed 2: The number by which the game's time flow will be multiplied upon pressing the second button. Default: 2 / Minimum: 2
As noted in the original mod's description, this mod does not interfere with the actual TIME of the game, simply the human perspective of how fast things are running -- Therefore, it is not a cheat of any kind. You will run the same distance in "game time" whether fast forward is toggled or not.
Oh, also, I haven't tested it, but I assume that this mod isn't multiplayer-compatible -- I wouldn't try it, at least. But this mod is mostly for play-testing anyways.
