Speed up time?

[JJBandit]

Hi folks,

I think i already know the answer to this, but i thought i would check.

Is there a way to speed up time by a couple of hours?

I know you can do it at the outposts, but it costs.

And i do have a tent, but begrudge having to pay to sleep in my own tent (why is this the case?) Cash is tight for this noobie beginner.


I'm guessing there isn;t a way to skip an hour or so whilst waiting for a need point to become active/used.? Is there?

**edit

Oh, and does the tent work as a hide? it seems to have a window to aim through.

Why do you feel the need to sleep so much?
The tent does not work as a hideout.

The cost is there so you dont abuse it. It use to be so that shot animals would spwan several days later, and to stop everyone to shoot a bunch of animals and then just skip 5 days to get respawns they have a cost that will increase if you use it many times in a short time.

ahh, that makes sense.. fair enough.

I just sometimes find i find a need zone after an hour or so of trekking, but have to wait a couple of hours before it becomes active.

IRL, i guess i may have a snooze whilst i wait. But then, i'm not a IRL hunter, so don;t really know what i would ractually do.

Thanks for the response/confirmation
