Accelerated time on Scorched Earth
So I've got this weird bug that seems to be unique to my SE singleplayer experience, my Island save doesn't do this nor do any of the mod maps I have installed.

Put simply, the map has become an Epilepsy trigger due to it changing from day to night literally hundreds of times per second (as a result I cannot play it). The skybox flickers constantly between the nighttime skybox and the daytime skybox, the clouds move at lightspeed, and the temperature changes from 7*C to -22*C so fast that the hud can't keep up with it. I'm at my wits end as to why this is occurring for me.

I can connect to public or official servers of SE and this does NOT happen.
This also doesn't happen on any other singleplayer map I have.

Configs have been reset to default multiple times.
Save data for that map has been reset multiple times, issue persists.

for science, I entered the slow motion command, "slomo" with a value of 0.0001, and a full 24 hour day now lasts a variable time between 0.5 seconds and 1.5 seconds and the day/night increments upward each time.

Update: thinking perhaps this was a possible issue with a RAM overclock (maybe time of day influenced by ram speed like old games relied on cpu timings for game logic), I reset all overclocks to factory. Issue persists.

For the record, CPU is a 5800X3d paired with a 6600xt, 32GB of RAM, running (originally) at 3600mhz, but also tested at 2100mhz (factory speed) using an MSI b340 board. Ram is 2 sticks of Corsair vengeance lpx 16

Additionally, while it may or may not be related, Scorched Earth in singleplayer crashes after approximately 3 minutes each time it is loaded with an exception access violation (hence why I suspected ram overclock being an issue). However Scorched Earth in multiplayer can run for hours at a time without issue as long as I am not the host.
