Description
Speeds up the game by removing pointless pauses and other time-wasters.
All changes are purely cosmetic.

UPDATED TO SUPPORT WAR OF THE CHOSEN!
For a version that doesn't require War of the Chosen, see here

Combat changes:
  • Removed 1-2 second pause after:
    • Shooting, throwing grenades, abilities, etc.
    • Getting a kill
    • Going into cover
    • Reanimating corpses and unburrowing chryssalids
    • Enemies are revealed
  • Removed enemies randomly pointing for no reason
  • Removed some unskippable Bradford voiceovers:
    • 1, 3, and 6 turns remaining warnings
    • Civilians dying warning
  • Removed 33% slowdown of enemies not being attacked during overwatch slowmo (enemies being attacked are unaffected)

Non-combat changes:
  • Increased the speed of the Avenger on the global map
  • Reduced the fade-in time of the horrendously slow color picker

To be Honest I've tried everything I know to do and it just doesn't work for me idk - seems to work for some but i'd say the majority are finding this to be flawed in some way or not working as intended.

Thank you for this mod!

@Gnarlax, did you read the exchanges below? There does not seem to be a real need to update it.
Gnarlax Jun 27 @ 1:49pm 
@Csimbi So now that you know the know-how that means you're going to fix it right? Or are you just going to push the goalpost like so many other entitled people in here?

@BlueRaja Thanks, I understand that was true years ago - when I last played, at least. If there were no patches released (which I doubt as it's a very old title), it should still be true, so no update is needed. Good stuff, thanks!

@Csimbi The Github link is in the description. However everytime I've looked into claims that the mod is broken, it turns out they were either having other issues, or misunderstood what the mod does.

I asked years ago about how this mod was built, so I could have fixed it years ago. No know-how, no fix.

For all people having issues thinking this mod is not working, check if Zip Mode is enabled or not in Gameplay settings.

I reinstalled the game recently and this was toggled off, causing me to think the game was running 'sluggish' and thinking this mod was not functioning.
