Days going by SO fast

[Nagafusa]

So I started up a new game today and for some reason the days go by in mere seconds. it seems the pawns only have time to get up, do one task and then go back to bed. what is causing this?

Mods

The more detailed answer is also mods

[Nagafusa]

I doubt its mods, as i've used the same ones before and this was never an issue. thanks for the reply I guess?

Turn off "Fast Ecology" in the dev mode settings.

If you don't use a lot of mods then it won't be hard for you to turn off half of them to check that it's not a mod that's causing the problem. The technique is to cut the number of mods in half at each take, instead of closing all mods manually, which technically can be an optimization of your time.

The rationality of the argument comes from the fact that the base game does not introduce the behavior you describe.

Theres no reason mods would cause this literally overnight.

Enable dev mode in the game settings if you haven't already and while you are in the game, go to the top of your screen and click on the third button from the left (it looks like a hollow hexagon under a solid square)
You'll find a bunch of checkmarks and X's. You want to find "Fast Ecology". It should be in the first column.

It shouldn't be enabled by default, but maybe it somehow got enabled on your save. The symptoms you described match the function of "Fast Ecology" almost 1:1. If it's not that, then it can only be a mod that had an update overnight. Either find it and remove it from your modlist or wait for whoever made the mod to fix it.

Possible reasons
- Corruption of files in the game
- Update of one or more mods

Option is off already. I give up honestly. game is unplayable like this.

Is it really that bad to try to solve the problem by process of elimination? I mean, the default game doesn't suffer from this problem.

I would like to recommend you to try a file integrity check of the game.

From the Steam Launcher, right-click on the game from the Library and select Properties from the menu.
1. Select the Local files tab and click Verify integrity of game files...
2. Steam will verify the game's files. This process may take several minutes.
3. Once the process is completed, the Check Window will automatically exit.
Please Note: One or more files may fail to verify; in most cases this is normal. These are local configuration files and should not be altered in this process.

Note: I'm not trying to minimize your frustration with the situation; I really like this game and my sincere wish is that you can come to a happy conclusion and continue playing this really cool game.

Does it happen on an older save as well? Does it happen in a new game with no mods enabled?

Sounds like real life to me. Get up, play RimWorld, woooosh - the day's basically over again!
