Sometimes the day and night cycle feels too long. I think it would be a great option to add where players could have the ability to change the speed of day and night and maybe separately.

Yeah I kinda like that. Some might also want it slower.

the cycle is too short for my taste so I support this. I think the cycle is about 15 minutes? from start to finish. something like that. could be 10. I don’t remember, I timed it a couple months ago and just know it was going by too quickly

it would effectively be an in game time mulitplier

#

the sun cycle is based on 24 in game hours

#

so to make it slower, i would just make in game time proceed slower

#

I'm not sure which one to do?

#

2nd one should be Speed Factor

Some things are easy, some things not so ;)

This will be pretty amazing. I can already see several uses. Extending time on some worlds and shortening it on others.

I capped it at 5 lol because anything above that gets a little ridiculous

#

I can uncap it though

Its a little bit crazy but the option to have a faster or slower day cycle is very appreciated

At x 5, a full day/night cycle is 3 mins

Could scripts gain access to this? I can see using this to make variable day/night lengths based on seasons.

Only thing I find weird is how no matter speed you increase it to,. It automatically slows down for the sunset/sunrise, even if the actual day/night cycle is much faster
