Ability to slow game down.

[Bartman]

I am brand new to this game. Is there a way to adjust game speed? I'm sure I am missing something obvious.

There isn't really other then being able to pause and super slow in the sandbox mode.

But if you like it would be fairly easy for me to add some hotkeys for slowing down and speeding up the game in singleplayer.

[Bartman]

Yes please. I'm old :) I love the game but especially for new players I think that would be a nice feature. I'm playing single player. When I graduate to "multiplayer" is there an option to set game speed? I know it can't be changed but is there a way to set it at the outset of the game?

Please do so. -- / - / * / + / ++ would be great

No problem, I'll try and add the hotkeys for singleplayer in the next update.

Multiplayer is trickier because the game clients right now expect the server to be running at normal speed. Also I do remember people fighting over the game speed in Total annihilation back in the day.

[Bartman]

I see. Perhaps players could have to agree (or be advised) what the game speed is before joining/accepting a game? Does not solve the server issue though.

Slowing down, speeding up, and pausing (but still being able to give orders), is in the latest update for singleplayer games. I'll look at multiplayer games later on.

The speed +/- works very well so far, and it's a nice addition, thanks.

Does the android version allow slow down? Not getting any Google hits on that question

I would like to know this too, because I have it as well as here on Steam and it would be extremely useful to be able to reduce the game speed a little (at least for me) in the mobile version to play against the AI.

Hello! : ) I've been loving your game and I'm looking into playing with my husband more !

Any updates on ability to slow down during multiplayer? The game just feels a "bit" too fast for me, I would love either .75 or .50 of the speed personally!
