Day-Night cycle

[↾Jks⇃ |]

Hello there
The day-night cycle feels way too fast and can't really enjoy the graphics at different times when playing at normal speed. Any way to change it to slower without speeding/lowering the game speed?

Hello,

You may choose a certain time of the day and continue playing to appreciate the graphics.

Best,
Ahmet

Found it, it was not on by default.

*edit* can confirm its waaaaaayyyyy too fast.if its base don the tick rate, maybe the game needs slowing down or a 0.5 speed option

indeed you do at 0.1 thats great for artsy things. but you also have an active pause so its kinda redundant. and tbh, the daily tick rate in general is too fast imo.

*edit* - me and the other player are talking about playing the game, not staring at a diorama or taking screenshots.

I would guess they know this, that's why it's oddly defaulted to off. It's great to see they have a day night cycle, but it needs work. Ideally it should be 100% dynamic for any given time. It's very poorly implemented as-is compared to say Frostpunk. Granted, that still has one of the best day/night cycles in any city builder.

From a tech perspective, they should be using the sun for lighting and it's position should constantly change. This would massively improve on immerson.

Hmm, i see - but that's the great thing about Early Access - you bringing this up to our attention, and us being able to think about what we can do here :)

I tried it - it's nice for a few minutes but I ended up switching it off. Much better to be able to see what you're doing 100% of the time IMHO.

I agree, it would be great if it were possible to slow down the alternation of day and night.

i see the posts are of january 2024 and by today nothing have been cared about as i see regarding clock speed ?

just checked a preview game video of few days ago it still every few seconds 1 entirely ingame hour - this is insane way to fast

did u guys add setting to reduce the clock speed by now or still nothing 1 year later?
i do enjoy slow games watching everything but if it continue rushed a hour each seconds i will denie buying

sorry bad english
